- Ignoring PTO caps, carryover limits and payout rules at termination.
- Assuming 8-hour days when the employer converts at 7.5 hours.
FAQ
Does PTO expire?
It depends on company policy and state law; some allow carryover, while others cap it or use a use-it-or-lose-it rule.
Is unused PTO paid out at termination?
It depends on state law and the contract; states such as California require payout, while many do not.
