I think I have one full day of annual leave and 2.5 days of sick leave. I had to use all of my sick leave when I was on maternity leave, and I'm earning it back so slowly because of doctor appt and sick kids. I used most of my annual time on our family vacation this summer. Bright note the rates at which I earn leaves increases in April, so they'll accumulate faster!

0. I had to use it all on my leave.

A little over a week... somewhere around 55 hours. It accrues each pay period, and rolls over. But holidays, PTO, sick leave, any leave is all rolled into those hours. So when I'm off for thanksgiving, I have to use 8 of those hours. It kind of sucks because I'm trying to save my PTO hours for maternity leave in March and with all the holidays, I'll only have about two weeks accrued and will have to take over half my leave completely unpaid

Over 200 hours each of sick and annual. I get 20 days of vacation and 13 sick days per year, but I've been crazy busy this year and haven't been able to take more than a few days of vacation. And we have flextime so I usually make up for doctor/dentist visits and don't have to use sick leave. Fortunately DD has been very healthy, knock on wood. Our sick leave accrues indefinitely but we can only carry over 240 hours of vacation, so I'm going to have to take all 4 weeks next year or risk losing some of my leave.

I think I have at least two weeks left. And luckily I don't have to use them during mat leave. My work went back and forth on that a bit.

@Mrs. Pen: I have almost the identical story to you (except due a bit later). Who decided PTO should cover holidays and sick leave?? I work in healthcare and am horrified that they don't have a paid leave plan. Ridiculous!

@MenagerieMama: yup, I'm a nurse as well. It absolutely sucks! They 'say' that PTO accrues at a faster rate to account for it, but I don't think that's true.
And when I was working and my son was 2, I often didn't have enough PTO to cover holidays because he was sick, or got sent home from daycare (long story), so I had to take holidays unpaid. It's a miserable policy and I truly thought as a large healthcare organization they'd be spearheading a wonderful family leave plan. Nope.

And on top of that, when I have to go back to work I'll have zero PTO for sick leave- what happens if my baby gets sick??

As teachers, we get 10 sick days and 3 personal days a year, which rolls over and convert to just sick time. At the start of maternity leave, with 6 years of working, I had enough days to cover 8 weeks of leave.
I went back to work in April, and so now I have 4 days accrued I think?

No vacation or personal days left (thanks to maternity leave) and I have 4-5 sick days left. I only have those because they accrue monthly and the rest of my leave I get at the beginning of the year. So I'm taking a vacation the first week of January (I get 4 weeks vacation each year).

I haven't been at this job for over 5 years and I couldn't negotiate to get the PTO I had from my last job (I had been there for 7 yrs already). So I never have enough!

Currently I have some... But at this point I'm just saving them to use for maternity leave.

I am a PTO hoarder.

I currently have 30 sick days, and 26 vacation days. Sick leave accumulates at 8hrs/month, and vacation at 10hrs/month. Both roll over year-to-year.

94 hours of PTO. I have about 40 hours of sick time but it can only be used once I've been out for 3 days ("extended illness bank"). Planning to use about 40 hours for vacation in February and Saving the rest for maternity leave.
