Do you get sick leave where you work?

[Gunslinger08]

I get 60 hours of sick leave per year. I use probably 8.

 

[Scouzer]

28 work days PTO
14 work days a year sick leave is accumulated (up to 10 days no questions asked, after that a simple doctor's note works) -- this stacks infinitely as long as you work there... i have about 220 hours. I have heard of guys near retirement taking over a year off in sick leave.
5 Family Days
Then all the misc. leave like grievance leave, wedding leave, etc.

144 hours sick a year, 120 hours of vacation a year, plus a bunch of random semi-important holidays. I work for the University of California. Sure beats my old job, 40 hours vacation, 21 hours sick, and you had to provide a note even if you were out one day. I had to really roll the dice and say no I didn't get a note from a doctor when I went on interviews for a new job.

 

[Fullmetal Chocobo]

8 hours of sick per month, 8 hours of vacation a month, plus comp time and FLSA overtime. I've got more time off on the books than I'll ever be able to actually use.

 

[BUTCH1]

26 days PTO /year...

 

[MmmSkyscraper]

ROFL at any job not offering paid sick.

 

[Locut0s]

Yes can't remember how much but it's very very little.

 

[g8wayrebel]

Yep , I accumulate 3 hours per pay indefinitely (72 hrs per yr). We can sell it back at retirement @ 50% plus the remainder going to time in service.
We also have progressive vacation starting at 3 hours per pay and increasing to as much as 6 (4 weeks).

I work for a small company, and I'm stuck on salary. If I need to take off, I just do, and get paid.... of course if it's abused I'd probably get canned.

 

[Scarpozzi]

16 hours annual leave + 8 hours of sick leave per month

Well I turned down paid sick for combined time off instead.

 

[dmw16]

no, we dont even technically get sick or flex time. Despite being salary we run things kinda "old-school". but we work a lot of hours (55-60 most weeks) so if I cut out early some friday no one says anything.

 

[IceBergSLiM]

so you guys actually have jobs that make you use your vacation days when your sick? Unless you get a ridiculous amount of vacation days your getting shitted on'

Well I get 3.6 weeks of vacation a year or 144 hours.

 

[Xavier434]

Yes, I get 2 weeks sick leave and an additional 2.5 weeks of vacation every year. Government job benefits ftw.

 

[Uppsala9496]

18 days vacation, 7 sick.
Can carry over 5 vacation and a maximum of 25 sick days.
When you leave the company you get paid for earned vacation days, but not sick days. So I go though all of my sick days every year.

Oh and since this is my 7th year at my company, I get an additional 3 week sabattical. So, I am going to be off most of September. Should be nice.

 

[purbeast0]

technically no. i used to get 10 days vacation and 5 days of sick leave, but now i get 15 days of PTO.

 

[bignateyk]

1 day a month. I can carry an unlimited amount.

 

[vi edit]

I accrue 12 sick days a year for a total of up to 480 hours. The sick policy for us is the first day comes out of PTO, any day after that comes out of the sick bank.

I get 23 PTO days a year, but that includes holidays. So it's more like 14 days a year. I can bank up to 76 days worth of vacation - 608 hours.

 

[Geekbabe]

14 days sick time- it accumulates but I get nothing if I don't use it

2 weeks vacation.. I bump up to 3 weeks this summer

2 personal days

10 paid holidays

 

[tfinch2]

I get 10 days of sick leave, but I can work from home anytime I want to.

I also get 10 holidays and 15 days of vacation.

 

[theeedude]

Don't care, sick or not sick, I am going to work. PTO is for traveling.
But I will check today.

 

[spacejamz]

no official sick time per se, but if you have too many occurences (an occurence is when you are out sick, be it one day or several days), HR/your manager will talk to you about it...

standard two weeks of vacation per year if you are there less than 5 years, 3 weeks/year if you have worked there 5 - 9 years and 4 weeks/year if you work there more than 10 years...

standard holidays and 4 floating holiday (MLK Day, President's Day, Veteran's Day, Columbus Day) which we can take on a different day if we chose...
