How difficult is it for you to get approval for your PTO? Do you need to have sufficient coverage before you leave? What are some struggles that you have encountered in the past?

Depends on the time of year. Sometimes it can be really difficult to get PTO because we're so busy, so I've stopped even trying around those periods. Other times it's not a problem.

Yes some times of the year are harder to take off than others. Thanks!

We have to make sure we are up to date on our work and if anything is left to do, that we find someone to cover for us. My boss is pretty lax about it and we work well as a team. We are always picking up the slack for each other and offering to help, so it's really never been an issue with me.

Thank you for your feedback!

I cross train my teams so we always have coverage. I will also step in and cover their roles if needed and I have multiple people out or if something hot comes up. I have never denied PTO. I am lucky to have absolutely fantastic teams and we all help one another.

I like this cross training aspect. They are doing that now for our team.

I have a governmental entity client in Texas that wants to offer 6 weeks of paid parental leave for all employees, even those who aren’t eligible for FMLA. After the paid 6 weeks, the employee can choose to continue paid leave using any accrued personal leave.

Texas does not have a paid parental leave statute.

If paid leave above what is required is offered for parents, do we also have to provide the same benefit to other employees that are eligible for unpaid leave?
