Are you allowed to carry over PTO hours? I might just be a pessimist, but my immediate thought is if they ever have to let anybody go, they don’t want to pay-out accrued PTO hours.
At my previous place, there was one employee that NEVER took PTO for some insane reason. Had saved up like 2 months of PTO.
He was told by HR he had too many hours and needed to use some PTO time. This specific scenario is not unheard of.
However, a month or so after he came back from a month and a half of PTO, he got laid off for reasons unknown to me.
Rumors are they didn’t want to pay-out the PTO.
Honestly it doesn’t make sense, they had to pay him for the PTO anyways, but when has HR made sense?
Oh that’s definitely because they don’t want to pay it out at the end of the financial year. But at least it kind of sometimes ends up working in the employee’s favor
