Well, this is ominous. -- (edited)

-----------------------------------
Going forward, and with immediate effect, PTO will only pay-out at employment termination in states where is it is mandated by law. Currently, the Exception States where accrued and unused PTO would be paid at time of termination are: Alaska, California, Colorado, Illinois, Louisiana, Massachusetts, Montana, Nebraska, Rhode Island1 & Vermont and it also includes the country of Canada. The list of “Exception States” may be updated from time-to-time in accordance with emerging legislation.
-----------------------------------

So, essentially, any PTO earned to this point they can choose to not pay out.

Great.

a few friends i have at companies that do PTO are encouraging them to "use this time to take some vacation." - colin Apr 20, 14:34
Not pay out at termination. I'm not seeing where it still cannot be used. -- nm - zunkskunk Apr 20, 14:23 2
- Yeah, that would just seem to encourage that people take PTO and then come back and resign. -- nm - Dark Callisto Apr 20, 14:25 1
  - Essentially, yes, they're saying "bring your PTO down to something that you can stand to not get paid out for." - JaxSean Apr 20, 14:40
Is it not something that can be asked for by the employee? -- nm - con_carne Apr 20, 14:05
Is that specific to your company, or to a wider segment? -- nm - Beryllium Apr 20, 14:04 4
- Apparently, there's nothing in other states' laws that require an employer to pay it out, but that was my employer's notice. - JaxSean Apr 20, 14:07 3
  - If your pay stub or employee materials don't indicate that your PTO expires and when, I smell class action -- nm - con_carne Apr 20, 14:11 2
    - That looks to be *from* "employee materials". It's a change in the PTO policy. - zunkskunk Apr 20, 14:21 1
      - During normal times, I'm sure that's true. But the reason emergency declarations exist is to prevent shenanigans like this -- nm - con_carne Apr 20, 14:26
