PTO accrual is the process where employees earn paid time off based on hours worked or pay periods completed.
Formula: Ending Balance = min(Max Cap, (Starting Balance + (Rate × Periods) - Used))
Ending Balance = min(Max Cap, (Starting Balance + (Rate × Periods) - Used))
Example: An employee with 20 hours starting balance, earning 5 hours bi-weekly over 10 periods with a 100-hour cap.
A cap is the maximum amount of vacation time an employee can hold in their 'bank' at any given time.
This is how often your employer adds hours to your balance, typically matching your pay cycle (e.g., every two weeks).
Depending on local laws and company policy, some hours may expire at year-end if they exceed carryover limits.
