Vacation accrual
Notion Tip: Companies sometimes have a system for accruing time based on employee tenure. This can be a major source of confusion. A Q&A section is a great solution.
Q: Will my unused vacation days carry over to the following year?
A: Unused days can be carried over into the following year. While we encourage you to get out of the office and refresh, we won't penalize you for showing up to work 😉
Q: As a new employee, will my vacation days be prorated?
A: Yes. The number of personal days will be adjusted based on your start date. Sick days and holidays will not be affected.
Q: If I leave the company, will I be compensated for unused days?
A: Yes. You will receive a check compensating you for any unused personal days. Sick days and holidays will not be reimbursed.
