The first-of-its-kind ruling is certainly raising some eyebrows. According to Reuters, employers are now permitted to dock PTO from workers who essentially do not meet ‘quotas’ (the very definition of such may significantly vary on what a quota is depending on where one works.) In the ruling, a judge decided that PTO is not part of a worker’s salary and therefore it can be docked.
This appears to apply to salaried workers according to Reuters.
Initially, the case was brought against Bayada Home Health Care Inc after the home health service had started docking PTO from salaried workers who they claimed weren’t meeting ‘quotas.’
