Tiempo libre pagado (PTO)

Employees can carryover 200 hours into the new year. Any balance over 200 after Jan. 2, 2022 will be reduced to 200 hours on Jan. 3, 2022 and excess hours will be forfeited. It is important to consider the carryover limit when scheduling PTO and determining if you want to participate in the PTO Sell/Donate campaign.

While there is no substitute for taking time away from work to rest and recharge, eligible employees can choose to sell and/or donate up to 60 hours of PTO from Oct. 12 - Nov. 4.

Earlier this year, we offered an additional sell/donate campaign in the spring and annual limits were temporarily increased from 40 to 60 hours each for the 2021 calendar year. Any hours sold or donated in the spring will count towards this annual limit. 

• Sell PTO 
  If you sell PTO, you will receive 90% of your hourly pay rate (due to IRS regulations) multiplied by the number of hours sold. The amount sold will be subject to applicable payroll taxes and is 401(k) eligible.
  
  
• Donate PTO
  This year, if you donate to a BSW Foundation and/or United Way, you can designate your donation to the areas of need that matter most to you.
