[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Do I have to offer separate sick leave or can I designate a lumpsum PTO that the nanny can use per her desire? Pros and cons?[/quote] You can do whatever you want--it's optional. This following is what I do and why. I provide separate sick leave and vacation leave (6 and 10 days, respectively). All sick leave must be used up during the calendar year so any unused does not carry over to the next year nor can be cashed out if unused. Sick leave is meant to cover medical appointments and illnesses that come up during the year so your nanny can take care of herself and not bring contagious illnesses into your home without fear of losing pay. Vacation leave can carry over to the next year but cannot accrue more than two weeks. Vacation is meant to be a break from work in order to rest and rejuvenate so you want them to take vacation. Unused vacation can be cashed out when they leave the job. [/quote]
