2007 Survey Of Traditional Time Off And PTO Program Practices
The Alexander Hamilton Institute surveyed more than 22,000 registered users of our website and received 1,734 responses.
Now you can use this data to benchmark your organization against your competitors. Whether you utilize PTO (where vacation, sick, and personal leave are combined into one bank) or Traditional programs (where each type of leave is tracked separately), you’ll need (and find!) the answers to key questions such as:
How much time off is given for PTO leave banks, vacations, holidays, sick leave, personal time, etc.?
Can employees borrow, carry over, cash out…how much and when?
Is unused vacation/PTO paid upon termination?
When do employees acquire the time they can use to take days off?
What's the biggest problem pinpointed by PTO practitioners?
What's the most popular and effective vehicle for announcing and promoting PTO programs?
ANSWERS AND ANALYSES
You’ll find a wealth of insightful analysis explaining the results and what they mean…as well as the implications and trends you need to stay up-to-date on. Plus, you can see for yourself the difference between PTO and Traditional leave practices.
This special report translates the raw numbers into useful and useable guidance for you to act on to keep employment costs in line without jeopardizing retention of top talent.
COMPANY SIZE AND INDUSTRY BENCHMARKS
We've dedicated an entire section of the report to differences based on the size of an organization for both Traditional programs and PTO programs.
In addition, included with the report is a CD that contains the complete survey results sorted by four size categories. The CD also contains survey results broken down by industry so that you can even more closely compare your practices to those of your competitors.
116 CHARTS AND GRAPHS
Many charts show side-by-side comparisons between PTO and Traditional leave programs as well as yearly trends to make it easier to judge where your company's current strategies fit in.
Plus, you will be able to use the charts to enhance your own efforts to get your points across to upper management or the employee workforce.
HANDS-ON FEEDBACK FROM YOUR HR COLLEAGUES
We've distilled the most important comments from our survey responders to help you find out exactly what the pros and cons are from actual HR pros, as they discuss what works and what doesn't, what to look for and what to look out for.
MORE THAN JUST A SURVEY
In addition to the survey results, this executive report provides the practical and legal guidance you need to strengthen your leave system without violating state employment laws.
One entire section of this report is devoted to the nuts and bolts of setting up and implementing a PTO program. That includes a checklist of factors to review in the design phase, as well as practical pointers from HR pros.
Numerous state laws touch on various aspects of how you set up and implement your time off programs, no matter what kind you choose. You’ll discover exactly what your state demands when it comes to Vacation Pay On Termination, Timing For Termination Pay, Jury Duty, Military Leave, School Visitation Leave, and more.
Plus, whether you use a Traditional time off system or a PTO program, you’ll find sample language for pertinent policies to strengthen your current handbook, including attendance, bereavement, holidays, sick days, vacation, and more.
