I get 5 and I used 2 of them last week!
-
Mine go up, not down. So, I accumulate 18 hours a month of sick + vacation (10 vacay, 8 sick). So about 2ish a month. Right now I have 3 weeks accumulated, and I'm hoping to accumulate 3 more before LO comes! Will probably still have 2 weeks unpaid.
Trying really hard not to take any sick days, and it's hard! I want to stay in bed
-
@Bookworm: I remember that feeling but it is worth it to save as much as you can! Just think that when you are dealing with postpartum stuff, a newborn, and sleep deprivation you will be happy to have sick days!
-
10 a year at full pay and 10 a year at partial pay (the idea is we accrue a bunch of the partial pay days and use them insted of STD if we are ever out for an extended period of time). I've never used a sick day except on maternity leave!
-
I don't get a certain number, I can use as many as needed as long as I still get my work done. I'm salary so I guess as long as I don't abuse it, anything goes!
-
I don't get sick days, I have to use my leave for sick days.
-
@MrsBrewer: Yup, same here. As long as I don't abuse it, I can have as many as needed. Although after 5 days in a row, I need a doc note.
-
@.twist.: I don't even know when I would need a note! My work is pretty relaxed about hours. But I'm sure 5 days off and I would need a note then! hahah!
-
@Thehistoryofus: Yep!! I spent half an hour yesterday trying to figure out a combination of working/not working/DH going in late so I can stay home 8 weeks. Good grief! I'll be glad I have as much as I do!
-
i get 17 days off a year both sick and vacation time combined. Doesn't feel like enough
-
We get 80 hours of sick time a year. If we don't use it, it goes into "Banked Sick" which was can then use for Short-Term Disability coverage.
-
I get 60 (because I've been here more than 5 years). Under 5 years gets 40 sick days. After using 10 days in a row you have to give in a doctor's note and if it's going to be longer you might have to apply for short-term disability.
-
We don't have sick days, we just have a bank of paid time off which is both sick and vacation. I get 3 weeks of PTO/per year + 2 additional days which are "floating holidays".
-
Technically, I guess 5? They're considered personal days and don't roll over each year. Otherwise, if I'm ill and want time off, I have to use vacation time off.
-
I get 20 days of PTO plus 2 floater days. I can roll over 5 days from the previous year if I don't use them. In another 2 years, I'll get 5 more days.
-
No sick days for me since I am a SAHM, but DH accumulates a day of sick and/or vacation days every week he works. He can rollover his time too, which is great.
-
12 sick days and 10 vacation days. We can also use our sick time to go to doc appointments which is nice.

About 2 and a half weeks a year. We accrue hours weekly. We get a ton of sick time, but once a year they remove half of those hours. Half goes into your bank and half just disappears. So you can keep accruing.
-
9.33 hours sick leave every month & 8 hours vacation time. I had 4 weeks saved up & then I got sick & had surgery. Pretty much starting from scratch. Im not pregnant yet so I have some time to rebuild but it would take me a year to save up for 5 weeks of leave. I think we can have up to 240 vacation & 960 hours sick. I've been here almost 10 years and have never been able to hold on to my leave time! Thank God we have family medical leave!
-
I get 20 sick days + 3 weeks of vacation. The good thing about the sick leave is that it is constantly re-accumulating. So, if I use all of it (like I did on maternity leave), I'll get back about 3 hours each pay period.
-
No sick days. I have to use vacation time if I have to be out sick.
-
My sick days come out of my PTO. It sucks! Which is why I'm currently at -9 hrs vacation.
-
5. At my last job, our sick and PTO were combined so if we needed to take 3 weeks of sick time we could (we just would have blown all our vacation in the process). I preferred that to designated sick and vacation time that can only be used for specific things. I dread later this year when I have an LO in daycare who's constantly getting sick and getting me sick and I only have 5 days to work with. I used 6 sick days last year just being pregnant! (they gave me the 6th one as a gimme without taking away pay).

I just had a job interview where I would start at 3 weeks vaca, 5 days sick that can accrue, and 5 days for CE. After two years I'd get 5 weeks vaca. Much better!!
-
I don't get any paid sick days. If I take a day off, it's coming out of my pocket.
-
5 sick days.
-
I don't get paid for any sick days.
-
This is my first year at a new school, so I have nothing accrued. I get 10 sick days, 4 personal days, and 10 family leave or bereavement days.
I think that's a LOT, considering at my old school, we got only 5 sick days and 5 personal days a year. In both districts, unused days roll over to the next year.
Not bad for working only 9 months of the year. Benefits of moving to a strong union state I guess!
-
I don't know for sure (isn't that terrible?) I don't take very many but I've never gotten to the point where anyone has said that I've run out.
-
My sick and vacation is combined as PTO, I get 26 days, but every year I have been carrying over 5 days. Really its 31 days.
-
We just have paid time off, which can be sick, personal, vacation. I think my company is pretty generous with that-- I have 28 days this year. I need to figure out how that factors into maternity leave and short term disability but I think it's pretty good for the US.
-
@MRS. LEMON-LIME: Yeah, I carried over 6 days, so really I have 34 to use this year, but I have to use the carry over by end of March.
-
We accrue leave per pay period and I have no idea what it adds up to. I get 6 hours of sick leave every 2 weeks.
-
We get 12 sick days per year..and I've been at my company for 8 years. While going through my maternity leave benefits with HR last week, found out that i have 71 sick days accrued that I could use... woot woot!
-
No such things as sick days for all the companies I've worked for. You take what you need, then it escalates to short-term then long-term disability.
-
i get 17 PTO days, and that includes sick days.
-
8 sick days, 2 personal days, no vacation (just when the students are on vacation)
-
I get 10 sick days... or is it 8 days.
