Time Off Cerner offers three time off programs. Your job determines which time off program you are eligible for.
Hourly Associates:
Eligible hourly associates accrue both vacation and well-being time. Annually, associates who are regularly scheduled to work 40 hours per week accrue between 80 and 160 vacation hours, based on length of service. If you work less than 40 hours per week (but at least 20 hours per week), your annual accrual rate will be prorated based on your regularly scheduled work hours. All hourly associates also accrue 1 hour of well-being time for every 30 hours worked. Well-being time can be used to help you manage your health, including your own personal illness*, a family member’s illness, doctor’s appointments and to care for your child because daycare is closed.
Cerner Standard Personal Time Off (PTO)
Eligible exempt associates in Job Levels 38-50 accrue PTO on a weekly basis. PTO may be used for your time off needs as is relates to vacation, illness*, taking care of sick family members and other personal matters. Annually, associates who are regularly scheduled to work 40 hours per week accrue between 120 and 200 hours based on length of service. If you work less than 40 hours per week (but at least 20 hours per week), your annual accrual rate will be prorated based on your regularly scheduled work hours.
Cerner Flex Personal Time Off (PTO)
Eligible exempt associates in Job Levels 1-37 do not accrue PTO. Instead, our Flex PTO program provides eligible associates with the flexibility to take time away as needed to rest and recharge. *In the event of illness time lasting longer than 3 days, you may be eligible for an extended leave (contact leaves@cerner.com to determine eligibility).
Long Term Service Award
Cerner recognizes that the commitment to your role required to be successful does not always leave enough time to pursue all of your outside interests and professional development opportunities to the degree you would like. However, we also know that creativity and enthusiasm are best fostered in an environment where people have time to enjoy a wide variety of experiences. The Long Term Service Award is designed to allow you time off to recharge and to spend time on personal and professional enrichment.
