How do I take time off or use PTO?
PTO Request
All PTO requests are subject to approval by site leadership and are reviewed on a first-come, first-serve basis. Requests should be submitted at least two weeks (14 days) in advance.
Important Notice
Approval is not guaranteed and will depend on staffing needs and operational requirements.
Unpaid Time Off Request
All PTO requests are subject to approval by site leadership and are reviewed on a first-come, first-serve basis. Requests should be submitted at least two weeks (14 days) in advance.
Unpaid time off requests must follow the same process and are also subject to approval by site leadership; however, PTO requests will take priority over unpaid time off requests.
Priority System
PTO requests are processed before unpaid time off requests to ensure fair allocation of paid time off benefits.
Submitting The Time Off Request
Employees are required to complete a PTO/Vacation Request Form and submit it directly to site leadership on site for review and approval at least two weeks (14 days) in advance.
Submission Process:
Step 1: Complete the PTO/Vacation Request Form
Step 2: Submit directly to site leadership on site
Step 3: Allow at least 14 days for review and approval
Step 4: Wait for confirmation from site leadership
Required Timeline

How do I make changes to my W-4 Witholdings?
Required Documentation
Each request must include:
- A fully completed and signed IRS Form W-4 (current year). (Download the form from the IRS website.)
- (Optional but recommended) Withholding worksheet or estimator printout if you used the IRS Tax Withholding Estimator.
- Handwritten forms are not accepted; please complete the fillable PDF and e-sign or print and sign clearly in ink, then scan.
💡 Tip
The W-4 lets you adjust filing status, dependents/credits, multiple-job settings, other income/deductions, and any extra amount to withhold each paycheck. Submit a new W-4 whenever these change.
How to Complete Your W-4
- Download the latest Form W-4 (Employee’s Withholding Certificate) from the IRS: Form W-4 (fw4.pdf)
- Fill out Steps 1–5 per the form instructions (use the IRS Tax Withholding Estimator if needed)
- Sign and date the form (digital or ink signature). Unsigned W-4s cannot be processed.
State Withholding (if applicable)
If your state requires a separate withholding form, include the state W-4 along with your federal W-4. (Check your state revenue site for the latest form.)
Submitting the Information
Email your completed documents to the Account Manager at [email protected] with the subject line:
Email Subject Line:
“Your Name – W-4 Withholding Change Request”
Example: “Matt French – W-4 Withholding Change Request”
Attach in the same email:
- Completed and signed IRS Form W-4 (PDF)
- Any applicable state withholding form (PDF)
Important Note
If you intended direct deposit changes instead, use the Direct Deposit instructions; for tax withholding changes, always use Form W-4.
