Paid Time Off

PTO provides the flexibility to use your time off to meet your personal needs. You will accumulate a specified amount of PTO each pay period worked, and it is up to you to allocate how you will use it: for vacation, illness, caring for children, school activities, medical/dental appointments, leave, personal business, or emergencies. PTO replaces sick leave, vacation, personal days and your birthday leave. You will be required to use any earned but unpaid PTO during family medical leave (FMLA), or any other leave of absence. The amount of PTO earned will depend on your length of service with NREIG.

Employees scheduled to work at least 30 hours per week are eligible to earn PTO. PTO starts accumulating the first full pay period after your date of hire, and the amount of PTO earned each year is based on the Employee’s length of service.

If you leave NREIG, you will be paid for any unused PTO hours that you have accrued or banked through the most recent pay period. On your last paycheck, however, we will deduct any PTO hours you have used but not yet accrued as of the most recent pay period.
