Vacation Accrual

System

We currently accrue vacation from date of hire. I have been asked by management to research other methods. Would anyone care to share how their company accrues vacation time?

We accrued based on calendar year; employees in their first calendar year of employment are pro-rated.

We accrue from date of hire and it is added to the PTO bank on a bi-weekly basis. New hires may not use PTO until they have been employed 90 days even though it is accrued. If something happens that they must be off, then they must use unpaid time.

Our employees accrue PTO from start of employment, but can only use the time for sick days and doctor's appointments during their probationary period (6 months). Any other scheduled time off (i.e. vacation) is unpaid until they pass probation.
