To be clear, many American companies do provide paid leave. According to CEPR, 77 percent of private sector companies offer employees at least some paid vacation, and those workers get an average of 21 paid days. Still, that leaves nearly 1 in 4 Americans without any guarantee of paid time off from work.
Employers credit additional hours to their employees banks, usually every pay period. Most US employers offer their workers 10 paid holidays, 2 weeks vacation, two personal days, and 8 sick leave days per year. Under a PTO plan, the employees would be credited with 30 days paid time off instead (10+10+2+8). On a bi-weekly pay schedule (26 pay periods per year), employees would accrue an additional 1.3 days of PTO every two weeks.
