<div dir="ltr"><div><div>Hello Fellow Librarians,<br><br></div>I am emailing from a library that operates with a use it or lose it PTO system within the calendar year and have an employee with leftover PTO time that isn't planning on using it. This generous individual would like to give some of that PTO to another employee that, due to a family hardship, used up their PTO earlier in the year. I want to make this happen but am curious how other libraries have dealt with this. Specifically, the two questions I have are: do you limit how much time can be gifted and do you factor in differences in pay grade and if so how? I assume their are other issues I am not considering so if you currently allow this practice or did in the past would you please email me off list with things to consider as well as policy/procedure examples. <br><br></div><div>Thanks, <br clear="all"></div><div><div><div><div><div><div class="gmail_signature" data-smartmail="gmail_signature"><div dir="ltr"><div><div dir="ltr"><table style="border-collapse:collapse;border:none" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0" border="0">
