Depends on who issued it - for an exact date, contact the issuing agency. Red Cross CPR certifications last for 2 years and American Heart Association certifications last for 2 years. Regardless how long the certification is good for, certain standards like NFPA require it annually. Be sure to check your company policy. Best case practice yearly in regards to OSHA training requirements (BBP).
Sick leave laws donât typically require that employers pay for unused sick leave when an employee leaves the company. However, if you use your PTO policy to meet sick leave requirements, in some states, such as California, you would be required to pay out all unused PTO at the time of separation.
While you arenât required to notify employees in advance when changing your paid time off (PTO) policy, itâs best to do so. Check Your State Laws. Though federal law doesnât require PTO, certain state laws do weigh in on the matter. So, first check with your state to make sure the change complies with any local laws. For example, if you are an employer in California, where state laws consider employeesâ PTO to be a form of wages, you canât change your policy in such a way that takes away PTO hours that have already been accrued. Notify Your Employees.
