Submit paid time off requests in writing at least one month in advance to your supervisor. When possible, paid times off requests are granted; taking into account the needs of the business. Length of employment may determine priority in scheduling paid time off. Paid time off should be taken in four-hour increments. Paid time off cannot be carried over from one year to the next. Paid time off pay is not granted. In cases where it is imperative that you be here for business reasons then paid time off may be rolled over. Any paid time off rolled over must be used within the first 90-days of the new year. Upon termination, eligible employees are not paid for accrued but unused time off unless otherwise mandated by state law.
