Same here - anything less than 40 is PT. But as long as you work more than 20 hours/week, you retain benefits.

I misread your other post AND this one - haha
FT is 40 hrs
PT with benefits is 30+
PT no benefits is 29 and less

@Adira: so how does that work with your pay? Do they prorate it based on the hours? @Mamaof2: or will you change from salary to hourly then?

@regberadaisy: Yep. We essentially have an hourly pay, so they just use that to figure out your new salary based on your hours. And your vacation accrual time is prorated based on your new hours.

Full-time is 40 hours - but you don't need to be full-time for all benefits.
30+ and you still get all benefits (but salary is prorated), 20+ and you still get STD, LTD, and life insurance (but no med ins or 401K.)

@regberadaisy: I will still be considered a salaried employee but will only get paid for 30hrs. I will still make xx/hr but now it will be times 30 instead of 40
If I went to hourly they would have to pay for me for any OT which they don't like to do

Anything less than half time, and you lose your benefits. I'm at 50% and I still have full time employee status with benefits, I just get my salary and PTO prorated.

Less than 40 hours/week is part-time. But you keep benefits as long as you work 30 hours/week. Salary is prorated. I'm an attorney so billable hour goals are prorated too.

Well, sometimes I don't think I make 40 hrs, but I'm salaried so it doesn't really matter, since I also have the freedom to take off early/come in late for dr appt without having to use PTO. So I would need to request to become PT to see what that actually entails.

I didn't vote because my situation is strange. I work at a bridal salon and their part-time employees work only on Saturdays and Sundays.

Other. My company is small and I'm full time with benefits, but I WAH 4 days a week. I only log my client billable hours, but I'm guessing I work about 30 hours, give or take.

I think 32? We work 8 hour shifts, and most people work what they call 4/5ths, 4 days per week. Then, after a certain about of years depending on your shift (7 years for swing/evening shift) you can drop down to 3 days per week (3/5ths) and keep benefits. Which is what I was able to do the summer after I came back to work, thank goodness! Pretty lucky to work 3 days per week and have benefits for my whole family.
