How to Calculate Pto

How many days is 40 hours of PTO?

For every 40 hours worked, the employee may accrue 1 hour of paid time off. If the employee saved up all their paid time off during the year, they would have approximately 52 hours in a year to use. Assuming this employee works the average 8-hour shift, this would break down to 6.5 days of total PTO during the year.

How do you accrue PTO hours?

Multiply your pay period PTO by time worked.

Multiply the amount you accrue each pay period by the number of pay periods you’ve worked. If you’ve worked two months without taking any time off and are paid semimonthly, you’ve accrued 20 hours; 5 PTO hours per pay period times 4 pay periods equals 20.
