Vacation Policy
Eligibility
Regular full time and part time employees scheduled to work 20 or more hours per week are eligible for vacation accruals.

Accrual Start Date
-
New hires: Regular full time and part time employees who are eligible for vacation start accruing paid time off from their date of hire. However, they are not eligible to take vacation until they have completed their 90 day introductory period and have their manager’s authorization.
-
Current Employees Changes in Benefit Eligible Status: An employee may become eligible or ineligible for vacation benefits based on changes in his/her official scheduled hours. Employees who become benefit eligible will begin their vacation accrual the first day of the pay period following the date they become benefit eligible and have completed 520 hours of worked hours. Employees who become ineligible for benefits will stop accruing at the end of the pay period of the date in which they became ineligible for benefits.
Accrual Hours
Vacation will only be accrued during straight work time; it will not be accrued while working overtime. Vacation does not accrue while employees are on unpaid status by San Ysidro Health. Employees will continue to accrue vacation hours while they are on paid San Ysidro Health status only. Employees working 39 hours or less per week accrue on a prorated amount.
Accrual Schedule: Full time employees who are scheduled to work 40 hours per week are eligible for vacation according to the following schedule:
FULL TIME EMPLOYEES ONLY (Eligible part time employee accruals are prorated)
Maximum Accrual
Employees are allowed to accrue up to 2 times their annual vacation allowance. Once the maximum accrual has been reached, employees will no longer continue accruing vacation hours. Employees may be asked to take vacation in order not to exceed their maximum accrual.
Holiday Pay
If a company-paid holiday falls during an employee’s vacation, the holiday will not be counted as vacation taken. Each supervisor will maintain a department schedule and the record of the vacation time taken by each employee must be recorded and approved through San Ysidro Health’s HCM (Dayforce) system.
Employment Termination
Employees will be paid for all vacation time and floating holidays earned at the time of their termination from employment. Pay will be computed based on the rate earned upon separation.
