Instead of simply providing more for an employee in need, this company thought it would be best to ask workers for PTO 'donations.'
one more week, I’ll rack up .2 days of vacation! PTO is valuable, and I’m assuming that there’s nothing I could say or do to get you to forfeit those days you’ve worked hard for.
Employees working in the private sector tend to earn an average of 11 paid days off per year, but this number can increase after employees have stayed at the same company for five or ten years. Sick days also tend to increase after an employee has been at one company for several years, but on average, full-time employees can take 8 days off each year for being ill. If you’re extremely lucky, your employer might even provide unlimited PTO.
Instead of relying on employees to take care of each other, Lars notes that companies need to consider whether they have enough PTO at all, if it’s a common issue for employees to run out. You might simply need to add more days into the year to give everyone peace of mind. The HR expert also notes that it’s necessary to have policies in place for bereavement, jury duty and parental leave, so conversations about donating PTO never need to arise.
