Time Off Benefits
Paid Time Off
Paid time off (PTO) is a benefit that allows employees to take time away from work while still receiving their regular salary. This time off can be used for various purposes, including personal vacations, illness, family emergencies, or other personal needs. PTO provides flexibility and supports work-life balance by enabling employees to manage their time off according to their individual needs and circumstances, ensuring they can rest, recover, and attend to personal matters without financial concern. Immanuel offers many types of PTO, from Volunteer Time Off (VTO), Floating Holidays, and Paid Holidays.

Paid Time Off Accrual
Paid time-off begins accruing upon start date for full-time employees and is accrued each pay period and may be used as accrued or saved. A complete chart of accruals, total days per year, and years of service is available and explains how accrual works for each FTE status and non-exempt and exempt employees. The Paid Time-Off Accrual Chart is located in UKG under My Company then Company Info or in the HealthJoy App.
Mission in Action
Volunteer Time Off (VTO)
Our mission is “Christ-Centered Service to Seniors, Each Other, and the Community”. We encourage employees to model this through service in the community. All full-time employees (scheduled 28 hours or more) will earn 1 day (up to 8 hours) of VTO per calendar year. If starting 07/01 or after this will be 4 hours.
This VTO may be taken in half (4 hours) or full (8 hours) day increments and is paid at the employee’s regular rate of pay.
VTO is an activity that can be completed to help earn points towards your wellness reward as a part of the Employee Wellness Program.
Examples of appropriate uses of VTO include:
- Volunteering at a food bank
- Cleaning up a park or trail
- Serving as a mentor or coach through a mentorship program
- Volunteering at a local hospital
- Volunteering at a school
