All PTO requests must be submitted through the portal. For PTO requests to be approved, the employee must be in good standing and there is appropriate coverage and/or planning for duties to be covered while out. Within 2 business days of you submitting your PTO requests, your supervisor will inform you if your request is approved or denied.
