We received an email reminding us about the use of PTO. Our supervisor admitted she was not well versed with PTO policy in the past and therefore did not adhere to strict policy. This year she said she will be following it closely and we need to be sure we r not negative by the years end. If I remember correctly, we were able to go negative last year and year before that. Does anyone know if this is a new policy this year? Sounds like it is a sign lay offs are coming to our team.

The carry over policy is different if you’re in California. There have always been rules on borrowing
UHC has always had a policy that you can go to neg 40 hrs if your business segment allows and manager approves. You can go into the neg if you as using for you 40hr waiting period for STD. All the is out on the hub for all to read.
Policy is online it is a use-it-or-lose-it policy you can carry over so many hours. The company does not like you to start the new year negative. and believe me if you lose your job and your negative forget that last paycheck and they will come after you if you owe them money 4 hours you spent prior to losing your job it can come out of 401 benefits or anything you owe them HSA
Policies r policies. If they say an employee can go -40, just like they can carry over 40hrs into the next year, why would they not deserve to work??
I am a 'little person' who is negatively impacted by my peers going negative with PTO- they don't work! I have to pick up that slack and cover their work. so Troll that 'on' your mirror

Save your breath manager. You’re the problem. Look on the mirror.
I don't understand why someone would think it is even ok to go negative and i don't even care what the policy says; you can't take time you didn't earn. People that feel this is ok, don't deserve a position with the generous PTO benefits we have. And they are BENEFITS, not entitlements.
The policy is that you can carry over 40 hours of PTO into the next year. You can also go up to 40 hours negative with manager's approval.
Wrong. Policy states you can go up to 5 days in the red (borrow) as long as your manager is ok with it. I've done it every year for the past 3 years.
Yes, policy has always been you cannot go into the negative at the end of the year. It’s based on budget. She’s probably just tidying things up a bit to ensure she is also compliant with policies.
It is the policy that you cannot go negative.
Especially at year end.
My question is, has policy always said we cant let our PTO balance go negative by years end?
policy has always been you can't carry over 40 hours into the new year or you lose it
