What should I know if I'm a salaried employee, and I need time off?

Answer by  Roland27 (16334)

Generally salaried employees have a set number of sick days and says off that they can take. Usually these days are paid, if you go over for some reason you won't get paid for taking time off. Check with your HR department on how many you have left.

You should know the individual policies of your workplace which are probably in a manual they give you when you start working there. Usually they want you to request time off 2 weeks before you take that time off and sometimes to make up the shifts. If time off is for illness you may need a doctor's note.

You need to verify your PTO (paid time off) accrual. If you need time off for a medical emergency, you will need to check your company's policy.

If you exceed the vacation/sick time allowed by your job, you will most likely be docked pay based on your daily average wage for the time off.
