How do I determine how much Vacation and Personal time I am eligible for as a Part Time team member? As a Part Time (PT) Team Member, you re eligible to receive a prorated Vacation and Personal time allotment based on your typical work week schedule. For example, to calculate vacation time, if a Level 17 PT Team Member is scheduled to work 60% of a full-time (FT) schedule (i.e., 3 days per week), he/she would be eligible to accrue up to 6 days vacation (6 days x 8 hrs/day = 48 hours) during the first full PTO Year (10 days x 60% = 6 days). This same rule applies to a reduced-hour work schedule. Example: a Level 15 team member with 3 years of service working 4 hours/day, 5 days/week would be eligible to accrue 10 days at 4 hours/day, or a total of 40 hours. For personal time, if a PT Team Member with 5 years of service is scheduled to work 60% of a full-time (FT) schedule (i.e., 3 days per week), he/she would be eligible to accrue up to 2.4 personal days (4 days x 60% = 2.4 days), or 19.2 hours (2.4 days x 8 hrs/day = 19.2 hours) during the first full PTO Year. This same rule applies to a reduced-hour work schedule. Example: a team member with 3 years of service working 4 hours/day, 5 days/week would be eligible to accrue 3 days at 4 hours/day, or a total of 12 hours.
