FAQ

How does PTO accrual work?
You earn PTO each pay period based on your accrual rate. This tool multiplies your rate by the number of pay periods elapsed and applies any carryover cap.
What is a carryover cap?
A carryover cap is the maximum unused PTO you can carry into the next period. Any balance above the cap is trimmed.
Can my balance go negative?
Some policies let you take PTO before it accrues. Enter your current balance to model a negative or starting balance.
Do you store my data?
No. Everything is calculated in your browser. Nothing is uploaded or saved on a server.
