If you run out and don’t have enough, your regular PTO will be used to pay the rest. When you use Protected PTO, your absence will be authorized, even if you aren’t able to request it in advance, as long as you’ve got enough Protected PTO to cover it. If you choose “sick/other” it’ll use Protected PTO first, while choosing any other reason will use regular PTO hours instead. In Corporate/Home Office locations with access to Protected PTO, the system chooses which kind automatically depending on the reason you select. Regular or Protected? If you work in a field Walmart, Sam’s Club, or Supply Chain facility, you can choose to use regular PTO or Protected PTO when you enter your time off request. Keep in mind that your facility’s attendance policy still applies, so be sure to follow the appropriate process for reporting an unplanned absence. Then just request your time off through the Global Time & Attendance Portal (GTAP). If you are missing work due to your own medical condition and are not eligible for an intermittent leave, or you’ve used up all of your intermittent LOA time, you may still qualify for leave as an accommodation, which you can request by calling 85.įirst, tell your manager or supervisor as soon as possible. If your leave is approved, you will not receive occurrences for absences which are covered by the approved intermittent LOA, even if you don’t use Protected PTO to be paid for them. Need more time due to a chronic medical condition? If you have a chronic or long-term medical condition, or are caring for a family member with such a condition, you should request an intermittent Leave of Absence (LOA) through or by calling Sedgwick at 80. Even if you use it at the last minute, it’ll protect you from attendance points due to an unplanned absence as long as you’ve got enough Protected PTO to cover the time away. Use Protected PTO when you’re out sick, need to care for family, have transportation issues, or when anything else comes up that keeps you away. You can also use regular PTO to be paid for an absence, but it won’t help you avoid attendance points like Protected PTO. Use Regular PTO for just about anything, anytime-as long as you make a request and get approval before you take off. That’s why all Walmart, Sam’s Club, and Supply Chain hourly field associates (plus hourly Home Office, Corporate, and Global Tech associates in some locations) have two kinds of PTO.
