Choose the method in your PTO policy
Some policies state an annual allowance, some award a fixed amount each pay period, and others accrue PTO for every hour worked. Use the method written in your employer's policy and treat caps, waiting periods and carryover separately.
Available PTO = starting balance + PTO earned − PTO used
Frequently asked questions
Does the calculator enforce an accrual cap?
No. If your policy stops accrual at a cap, compare the calculated balance with that cap.
Is PTO calculated the same everywhere?
No. Policies and legal requirements differ. This tool is an estimate, not payroll or legal advice.
