2022 PTO Overview

Sunrun believes it is critical that you actually take time off in order to rest and recharge to face the strong growth demands of our company.

Eligibility

Regular full-time and part-time employees whose position is below manager level (or its equivalent) and above are entitled to earn PTO based on their years of active service. Active service begins on your first day of work and continues thereafter unless broken by an absence without pay, a leave of absence or termination of employment. Temporary employees do not earn PTO (however, they are eligible for sick leave in applicable states).

Using PTO

You become eligible to take PTO any time after PTO has been earned; as your work schedule permits. You may use accrued PTO for any reason, including vacation, illness, to take care of family members or other personal matters. You will need to schedule your time off with your supervisor.
PTO must be taken in one-hour increments.

Sunrun will not pay you cash in lieu of PTO (unless you have a PTO balance when you leave Sunrun). Sunrun’s PTO policy complies with state and local sick leave ordinances. If you expect to use PTO, you must provide reasonable advance notification to Sunrun. If you must use PTO unexpectedly, you must provide notice of the need for the leave as soon as practically possible. You may use PTO for preventive care for yourself or a family member, as well as for the diagnosis, care or treatment of your or your family member’s existing health condition.

PTO Accrual 

PTO can accrue to a maximum cap. Once you reach the cap, no further PTO will accrue until you use some of your PTO. If you have a PTO balance at the time you leave Sunrun, you will be paid for the accrued, unused PTO. If you are on unpaid leave, you do not accrue PTO.

Regular part-time employees earn PTO on a pro-rata basis with regular full-time employees. For example, if you work 20 hours per week, you will earn PTO at half the rate of a regular full-time employee working 40 hours per week. You may not use PTO before its accrual. You will not be paid for any time in excess of accrued PTO. You cannot take unpaid days off if you have accrued PTO. Your use of PTO may run concurrently with other leaves pursuant to local, state or federal laws.

PTO Accrual Schedule

Your PTO accrual rate depends on your length of service and your location (please note that you do not accrue PTO while on unpaid leave):
