PTO (Paid Time Off)

Paid Time Off (PTO) is a benefit that allows employees to take scheduled leave from work while still receiving their regular pay. It combines various types of leave—such as vacation, personal days, and sometimes sick leave—into one consolidated benefit. Employees can request PTO for rest, personal matters, or health reasons, and employers typically allocate a certain amount of hours or days annually. PTO helps promote work-life balance and overall well-being by providing employees with flexibility and financial security during their time away from work.
