Making Work Better: Employment Law & Workplace Challenges
Business:Entrepreneurship
Prinz attorney Poonam Lakhani and Laura Lefkow-Hynes discuss all things unlimited PTO in this episode! Reflecting on the trend in corporate America to increasingly offer unlimited PTO, Poonam and Laura address both the benefits and pitfalls of an unlimited PTO policy. Businesses must think through and balance various considerations before drafting a policy to ensure its clarity and applicability. But once a policy exists, it may lead to unintended consequences, such as claims of discrimination or favoritism in how the policy is implemented. Poonam and Laura offer best practices for employers on how to develop a policy that best suits both its business needs and workplace culture. They also identify what employees should look for when joining a new workplace that offers unlimited PTO.
