What Is PTO (Paid Time Off): A Guide for Employers

Paid time off (PTO) is a progressive policy implemented by businesses to provide employees with a bank of hours that the employee can use to take paid leave from work. This includes time off for various reasons, such as vacation days, sick days, personal time, and sometimes even holidays. PTO is considered an essential part of an employee’s benefits package, offering a lump sum of time based on certain criteria like the number of hours worked or seniority, which employees can use at their discretion.
