PAID TIME OFF
Proficient Auto Transport, Inc. understands that Drivers spend many days on the road and time off is essential for them to maintain a healthy and balanced lifestyle. As a result, Proficient Auto Transport has developed a new and improved PTO Program.
PTO time is intended to encompass ALL paid time off. This includes vacation time, sick- time and personal time.
Terms of Program:
- Proficient’s PTO Program is based on Calendar year (January 1 st – December 31 st)
- All time off requests, whether paid or unpaid, must be requested via the ADP app as far in advance as possible. The Company understands that everyone has circumstances whereby time off requests cannot be made months in advance, however, the Company expects Drivers to make every effort to notify and request all planned time off at the beginning of each Calendar year.
- Any unused but earned PTO that is not used by December 31st of each year will be paid out to the employee.
- Employee is entitled to request Paid Time Off or Unpaid Time Off in no certain order so long as total requested days do not exceed total allotted under this Policy. However, once all excused days (whether paid or unpaid) are used, additional unpaid time off requests will be evaluated on a case by case basis. Manager reserves the right to decide, based on circumstances, whether additional time requested and/or taken will be deemed excused or unexcused.
- All time off, whether paid or unpaid, must be approved in advance by your Supervisor
- In the first Calendar year of employment no time off, whether paid or unpaid, can be taken until employee reaches 90 days of continuous service.
Awarded PTO is based on the length of continuous service with the Company. The Company also allots for a certain number of Unpaid Days Off that can be taken without penalty.
