A Hotel Employer shall provide at least 96 compensated hours off per year for sick leave, vacation, or personal necessity to full time Hotel Workers to be made available at the Hotel Worker’s request. (a) A full time Hotel Worker is classified as someone who works at least 40 hours a week or in accordance with the Hotel Employer’s policies, if more generous. A full time Hotel Worker shall accrue at least 96/52 hours of compensated time off each week in a calendar year that the Hotel Worker has been employed by the Hotel Employer. Compensated time off does not accrue for work in excess of 40 hours a week. Full time Hotel Workers that work less than 40 hours a week will receive the compensated time off in proportional increments. (b) A part time Hotel Worker is classified as someone who works less than 40 hours per week or in accordance with the Hotel Employer’s policies, if more generous. A part time Hotel Worker shall accrue compensated time off in increments proportional to that accrued by someone who works 40 hours a week, in accordance with Section 186.02 B.1.(a). (c) General Rules for Compensated Time Off. (i) A Hotel Worker must be eligible to use accrued paid compensated time off after the first six months of employment or consistent with company policies, whichever is sooner. (ii) A Hotel Employer may not unreasonably deny a Hotel Worker’s request to use the accrued compensated time off. (iii) Unused accrued compensated time off will carry over until the time off reaches a maximum of 192 hours, unless the Hotel Employer’s established policy is more generous. (iv) After a Hotel Worker reaches the maximum accrued compensated time off, a Hotel Employer shall provide a cash payment once every 30 days for accrued compensated time off over the maximum. A Hotel Employer may provide a Hotel Worker with the option of cashing out any portion of, or all of, the Hotel Worker’s accrued compensated time off under the maximum, but, in no event, shall the Hotel Employer require a Hotel Worker to cash out any accrued compensated time off.
