Henderson Employee Handbook

PTO USE The use of PTO is NOT required for the company’s paid holidays, paid personal holidays, parental, jury duty, or bereavement leaves. These benefits are separate from the PTO policy; however, acceptable documentation may be required to receive pay under these benefits. PTO is also not required but may be requested for USERRA-conforming military leaves. The use of PTO is required for any other time away from work such as time for rest and relaxation, absences to attend school meetings or personal or family doctor’s appointments, or absences to care for your own or your family members’ illness or injury. The use of PTO is also required for absences during any benefit waiting period such as short-term disability and absences relating to FMLA, whether intermittent or continuous.

There are 2 ways to use your PTO:

1) Scheduled PTO 2) Unscheduled PTO (FLEX)

Scheduled PTO . If scheduled, PTO can be used in blocks of time or in individual days according to your accrual allotment. If scheduled, you may elect to use your PTO in 8, 10, or 12 hour increments. All requests for scheduled PTO and/or Personal Holidays must be submitted at least 2-weeks in advance and are subject to management approval. Unscheduled PTO. Each employee will be allowed to use up to 40 hours of his or her annual PTO accrual as unscheduled PTO (FLEX-Days). You may elect to use your PTO in 4, 8, 10, or 12 hours increments. EIGHT HOURS of this 40 hours can be taken in 4-hour increments, or two(2) half days of FLEX. No employee will be allowed to use more PTO hours than they have available in their PTO bank. FLEX-DAYS The Company utilizes FLEX-Days as a way of recognizing that you have lives outside of work. We need you to work when you are scheduled to work; however, we do realize that things sometimes happen beyond your control. We want to ensure that as long as you meet certain guidelines, you will not be penalized for those absences. You will be allowed to use 40 hours of your annual PTO accrual as FLEX-Days that you can use as unscheduled paid time off. EIGHT HOURS of these 40 hours can be used in 4-hour increments. Any accrued, unused PTO time will be paid out to you at termination.
