Calculate Vacation Pay
Depending on your employer's policies, you might see your vacation pay shown separately on your pay stub.

If for some reason the pay is at a different rate, you will need to get that rate before beginning the calculation process.

In many full-time jobs, paid vacation time is part of your compensation package. Depending on the position and how long you've worked with a company, the number of paid days off you get per year will vary. According to mySalary.com, most employees in the U.S. receive between two and four weeks of paid time off per year.



Many companies distinguish between paid sick days and paid vacation days. While you may qualify for 14 days of paid time off, you might find that only seven of those days are vacation days. You can determine how much vacation time you have by checking your pay stub.

A cactus can remain dry for up to a month without complaint. A fern or hibiscus may cry out for moisture within three days. Most plants can last a week without water, but anything longer than this requires special measures to insure survival. Fortunately there are a number of methods that work for the majority of plants.
