Are the days in the PTO bank 8 hour days or 12 hour days?
When we speak of PTO days, we are referring to 8 hour days. However, PTO is accrued in tenths of hours. Non-exempt employees may take Paid Time Off in increments of .1 of an hour or more. Exempt employees may take Paid Time Off in increments of four hours or more. When taking an entire day off, you will be paid for the number of hours normally scheduled to work for that day. If you work a portion of a day and take the rest of the day off, you should note the amount of time worked and record the balance of the scheduled work day as PTO.
