Personal Time Off

Technology Unlimited Group believes that Personal Time Off (PTO) is a necessary component of each employee’s health and well-being. PTO is used to cover absences from work for vacation, illness, medical appointments or treatments, jury duty or witness service, as well as numerous other reasons.

An employee accrues PTO for every paid hour. PTO is accrued on a prorated basis using a standard formula based on a 2080-hour work year and the employee's years of service. New employees earn PTO at a rate of three weeks per year. PTO is paid at the employee’s hourly rate at the time PTO is taken. For the first five years of continuous employment at TUG, employees earn the equivalent of three weeks of PTO per year. Beginning in the sixth year, an additional day of PTO is added to the accrual rate every other year of service at TUG until the employee has reached a max of 23 days of PTO per year. To assist new employees, during the first six months of employment, an employee may request a one-time PTO advance of up to 40 hours.
