Can you elaborate on ETO being given in a single block by chance? So there’s no way I can ask for a day off if something were to happen? Right now in the hospital I work in, my role is in nursing administration and it’s 12hr shifts and it would be the same department/hours at Cox

Cox’s ETO policy and earning chart below. What they mean by a single block is you accumulate ETO, but have to use it for vacation, most sick days, and holidays. So while 3 weeks and 2 days sound good, you will lose a large chunk from holidays depending on your job function and then hope you don’t get sick.

There is a short term disability accrual as well, but it only kicks in on the 5th day.

https://www.coxhealth.com/employees/benefits/time/

Earned Time Off (ETO) is available to full-time and part-time employees at .5 status or greater. ETO is used any time an employee is off work during his/her scheduled work hours unless the employee qualifies for Accumulated Disability Benefit, Funeral Leave or Jury Duty. ETO will be awarded each pay period based on the prior pay period hours paid, excluding weekend option bonus hours. An employee may accrue up to two times his/her potential annual ETO amount.
