PTO Sharing/Donation

PTO Sharing program allows associates to share their PTO with other Advocate associates by donating to the PTO Sharing fund or to request PTO from the PTO Sharing fund when they are in need of PTO for unexpected medical or personal emergency. (See policy)  

Eligible associates are Full-time, Part-time A and Part-time B associates who have a medical or personal emergency that will require them to miss work and have exhausted their PTO balance. Any associate who has exhausted or is about to exhaust (has 8 hours or less in their PTO bank at time of request) may make a request for additional PTO by going to Advocate Online "Benefits" pages and selecting PTO Sharing under the Paid Time Off menu. Use the "PTO Sharing Request form" and fax it to HR Direct. An associate's manager (or a coworker, through their manager) may also make a request in the absence of the associate at HR Direct. If you need to request PTO Sharing hours, click the link below for PTO Sharing request.  

Advocate provides its associates with the opportunity to demonstrate their compassion for fellow associates by donating their PTO to assist other associates who have exhausted their PTO benefits. Hours cannot be donated to another individual directly.  They are placed in the site's donation account for everyone to access. If you wish to donate hours to into the general PTO sharing fund click the link below for PTO Donation.
