I’m surprised more people aren’t using PTO, since they don’t pay you out for flex days and floating holidays when you get laid off. Only vacation. Everyone should take off next week.

Did anyone figure out if it’s possible to change the code from vacation to flex? I used all my vacation/float days but have a ton of flex days left in UKG…wondering if there’s a way to change what’s been taken
i have plans to use all of the time they won’t be paying out. and i don’t plan on working after thanksgiving if im told im included in the cuts
@ad just reread the policy and it explicitly stated flex days are not paid out but all unused PTO is paid out. There is no use it or lose it with PTO, unless maybe it's different depending on job level?
Use all the time off possible PTO, Flex, Vacation, Bereavement, Float, Holiday, anything else you can figure out. Your time is more valuable.
@aa clarity - flex up to $1k is paid out when time remains when bank reloads
pretty sure this will not be paid out if severed
@aa okay, then if you make under 125, get your calculator out and figure out how many you can take and still get the 1k. If you make over that, sleep in, go do something nice.
@a6 only Flex gets paid out. up to $1k for employees under $125k base. Float and Vacation are use it or lose it
if severed, only vacation would be paid out
@a8 They don’t pay out flex days. It’s only vacation….And lots of people are getting laid off. If you have those days, use them. They won’t like it too much if everyone stays home next week. Probably why you’re on here acting like it’s a bad idea.
...cause its the exact opposite if you arent laid off. I usually get paid about 20+ flex hours every year since I've started.
@a6 I didn’t know that was possible. How do you change it?
Two quick tips. If you used vacation time, go back and change them to float hours and flex. If you do get severed out and earn less than 125k (from the employee manual) they will indeed payout up to $1k of float. BUT do not count on that. Alas be wise with your paid off time.
If you are a tenured employee and have banks of old pto time like from ATT Broadband. Find a way to use them. You will not be paid out.
