[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We have a FT nanny who we pay weekly, along with PTO and holiday bonus etc. This year she took a lot of extra PTO and as a result ran out of days.

DH and I were both able to take off for the year end holidays so we left for two weeks.

DH manages her paycheck and schedule but he told me today that because she didn’t have any PTO left for the year that he had paid her for last week plus her bonus but also told her he wouldn’t be paying her for the two weeks we’re away, and she was ok with it.

I told him that since we’re away but she’d have been available to work that he’s supposed to pay her either way. [b]I guess she wanted to take off the time for Christmas [/b]so since she didn’t have any PTO left she was fine with not being paid, but did DH do the right thing here?

Thank you [/quote]

So I think this is like any job - if you want to take time off and you’ve used up paid leave, you take it unpaid. That’s employment 101, no?

The thing here is whether she wanted time off (should be unpaid) or you guys told her not to bother coming in (should be paid since she was expecting to work and get a paycheck and you guys are switching it up).

Surely you were planning on paying her for Xmas eve and Xmas day as paid holidays anyways, yes?[/quote]
