Paid Vacation
-Resident employees are allocated PTO, for vacation, holidays, personal
reasons, severe weather emergencies, family illnesses, and short-term
personal illness at a predetermined annual level. The PTO annual award
for residents at the PGY1 level is 16 days (128 hours) and the award
for residents at the PGY2 level and above is 21 days (168 hours). Upon
termination of the residency program, the unused hours remaining in
resident's PTO award/PTO bank, will be paid out. Residents may not participate
in the PTO sell program.
PTO in the Accrued and Bank balances will automatically carry over to
subsequent training years. Effective AY 2009-2010, residents will be
compensated for any unused Bank PTO upon termination up to a maximum
limit not to exceed the amount of PTO that was awarded for the current
academic year.

hours remaining in the Bank PTO balance. Employment terminates so 168
PTO hours will be paid out with 40 hours being forfeited.
