Time Off
Everyone needs time off from work to relax and recharge. Cerner offers three time-off programs. Your job determines which time-off program you are eligible for.

HOURLY ASSOCIATES
You accrue both vacation and well-being time. If you are regularly scheduled to work 40 hours per week, you accrue between 80 and 160 vacation hours each year, based on length of service. If you work fewer 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 one 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 when daycare is closed.
You accrue paid time off (PTO) on a weekly basis. Associates who are regularly scheduled to work 40 hours per week accrue between 120 and 200 hours annually based on length of service. If you work fewer 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.
You 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 three days, you may be eligible for an extended leave. Contact leaves@cerner.com to determine eligibility.
LONG TERM SERVICE AWARD
Cerner recognizes that you may not always have enough time to pursue all of your outside interests and professional development opportunities to the degree you would like. We also know that creativity and enthusiasm grow best in an environment where people have time to enjoy a wide variety of experiences. The Long Term Service Award is designed for just that — to allow you time off to recharge and to spend time on personal and professional enrichment.
