4. Paid Parental Leave: LRWRA provides eligible employees up to four weeks of Paid Parental Leave (PPL) at 100% of the employee’s pay rate for bonding after the birth, adoption, or foster care placement of a child, in alignment with LRWRA’s commitment to supporting family responsibilities.*
5. PTO Conversion: Once per year, employees may “convert” PTO hours into dollars to pre-fund health-related premiums and HSA contributions.
6. PTO Sale Program: Two times per year, employees can sell a portion of their accrued paid time off during designated periods each year. This voluntary program provides added flexibility while ensuring employees maintain sufficient time off for rest and personal needs. Eligible employees may sell up to 30 hours of PTO per year, subject to program guidelines and deadlines.
