PTO Hours vs Work Hours
Understand the difference between paid time off hours and worked hours in schedules and timesheets.
The difference
Work hours are hours actually worked. PTO hours are paid time away from work, tracked separately in many systems.
Why separate them
Separating PTO from worked hours keeps project cost, utilization, and overtime review clearer.
Timesheet note
TimesheetKit calculators focus on worked time math and do not manage PTO balances.
