Cooper is pleased to announce that the November 2023 paid time off (PTO) sell-back opportunity is almost here. The payout will be based on PTO accrued as of the pay period ending November 18, 2023. Payment will be made on Friday, December 1, 2023.
Requests must be completed through iCooper Team Member Space. Team members must submit their requested sell-back hours between November 13 and November 27, 2023, through Team Member Space. You will receive an automatic confirmation email once you submit your request. You must have a Cooper email address to receive a confirmation. Instructions on how to submit your PTO sell back are available here.
The following outlines the criteria for eligibility:
- Full-time team members may sell back from eight to 40 hours of PTO time in 8-, 10-, or 12-hour increments, depending upon the length of the team member’s normal work shift. However, a minimum of 72 hours must be maintained in the team member’s PTO bank at the time of the sell back.
- Part-time team members may sell back from eight to 24 hours of PTO in 8-, 10-, or 12-hour increments provided a minimum of 36 hours is maintained in the team member’s PTO bank at the time of the sell back.
- Payment for the sell back will be at the team member’s base rate of pay.
- The sell back of PTO is voluntary and sell back decisions are final upon receipt by the Payroll Department.
- Team members who do not accrue PTO on a bi-weekly basis are not eligible for sell back.
- It is the team member’s responsibility to submit their request via Team Member Space by 5 p.m. on Monday, November 27, 2023.
- Payroll will adjust any PTO buy back requests on November 28, 2023, where the eligible PTO balance will now fall below the required minimum hours.
