PTO (Paid time off)
This includes all other kinds of paid time offs including public holidays (in Austria according to the collective bargaining, in US eg. jury service).
For US: Please use the Vacation absence type for tracking your vacation days not the PTO type.
Public holidays = Paid Time Off
On a global team, we all celebrate different holidays – which is great! But it’s important to make it easy for teammates to be fully off for the holidays of their region without putting the burden on them to ask for the time or have to justify it.
Therefore, our holiday guidelines are pretty simple: the holidays of your country are assigned as days off!
For our main locations (As of June 2022: Austria and US) we will have the public holidays populated in Personio. So MOSTLIES in these two countries do not need to do anything.
For all other countries, MOSTLIES need to request PTO in advance and mention in the comment box the name of the public holiday. Your manager will receive the request and gets notified about your absence and can plan accordingly.
Company holidays
Please use this type of absence to add the following days for 2022 as additional days off:
2022: 27 May 2022 + 26/27-30 Dec 2022
2023: 26/27-29 December 2023
Unpaid vacation
Please use this type of absence to track your unpaid vacation. Please find here additional information about unpaid vacation.
