We also allow 3 sick days per anniversary year. What's your sick time like as well?
Thanks for all of your input!

We are similar to Popeye, but we start with 2 weeks and that is it til 5 years. Add one day per year for 5 thru 9. 10 thru 15 is 120 hours. At 16 add another day til 19 years, it then stays at 160 hours annual accrual til you leave. At 400 hours plus your current year accural, you are capped. All is paid out when you leave.

Sick leave is 80.6 hours per year. EE have the opportunity twice a year to cash some of that in.
