Does anybody know any resources or ideas about how to structure vacation and time-off (sick time, appts., etc.) for employees. How do some of you other businesses out there structure your employee time-off. In other words, How much paid vacation do you give, etc.?

We use paid time off (PTO) vs sick, holiday and vacation time. This rewards employees that do not call in sick with additional time off and makes scheduling easier since advanced notice is given for time off. We use a factor multiplied by by hours worked for each pay period with the info available on the paystub. Quickbooks can do this easily.

 Hope this helps,jeff

It seems to be popular now to give a set amount of PTO to cover illness, vacations, personal time off. In a year, 10 days is not unreasonable. There are many ways of doing it, and below is a link to a search engine with several additional resources.
