There are two different views when it comes to PTO balances.
Salesforce: In the Salesforce view, employees can view their PTO as a whole for the current calendar year. This is different from the iSolved view where employees can access their paystubs which do not display the entire current year PTO balances, but rather capture the current pay period PTO accruals and balances.
Watch the video below for a tutorial on how to access your PTO information in Salesforce:
2. iSolved: Accessing you PTO via iSolved will allow you to view your current pay-period PTO accruals. Below is a tutorial once you log into iSolved under Employee Self-Service to access your Pay Stub:
Located at the bottom of your pay stub there are three sections. Included in these sections are Current Period Leave Accruals (as shown below). This includes your current PTO accruals updated to the current pay period, not for the year as a whole, as shown in the Salesforce view.
PTO accrual begins on January 1st of each year. The amount of PTO an employee accrues each year at Brindlee depends on how long they've worked at Brindlee and their work schedule. Full-time employees work a minimum of 30 hours per week, and are eligible for PTO and other benefits.
Any PTO hours that are used for vacation require at least two weeks' notice.
If an employee needs to use PTO for illness or an emergency, they should let their supervisor know the day of the absence.
See the chart below for accrual rates based on tenured time with the company:
Employees at Brindlee are able to roll over up to 40 hours of unused paid time off (PTO) into the next calendar year. For example, if an employee with 100 hours of PTO only uses 60 hours in a year, they can carry over the remaining 40 hours to the following year. In this scenario, the employee would begin the next year with 140 hours of PTO (the 40 rolled over hours plus the 100 hours they are eligible to accrue). However, these rolled over hours cannot be banked for more than one year, so they must be used in the year they are rolled over to.
Employees must get approval from their supervisor to use their banked PTO hours.
Employees can also opt to "cash out" up to 40 hours of PTO at the end of the year. For example, an employee who has 100 hours of PTO but only uses 60 hours can choose to be paid for the remaining 40 hours.
Employees cannot both roll over 40 hours and cash out 40 hours in the same year, even if they have 80 or more hours of unused PTO.
