Purpose
The College maintains a Paid Time Off (PTO) Program for the purpose of providing staff with the opportunity to take time away from work without loss of compensation. The PTO Program is an inclusive time off program intended for use in connection with vacations, short-term illnesses of 5 days or less, personal business, family care, and other needs which may require time off from work. Eligible staff members accrue PTO hours each pay period based on their job classification, appointment effort and years of service in accordance with an accrual schedule.
This policy is effective upon receipt and supersedes the vacation and sick leave policies previously in place at the College. All regular full and part-time staff members scheduled to work 1,000 hours and above per year are eligible for PTO. Regular staff members who work less than 1,000 hours per year and temporary employees are not eligible for PTO.
