Time Away From Work

Vontier offers helpful benefits that allow you time to relax, recover, care for family members, honor personal commitments, and more.

You are eligible for paid vacation time if you are regularly scheduled to work 20 hours or more per week. The length of time you can take each year depends on your years of service. You can request more information about vacation time from Human Resources.

Regular full-time employees may be eligible to take paid personal floating holidays each calendar year. Personal floating holidays can be used for religious or other personal reasons. Programs vary by operating company. You can request more information about personal floating holidays from Human Resources.

Generally, Vontier provides paid holidays each year, however, observed holidays may vary by operating company. You can request more information about company holidays from Human Resources.

For any planned surgeries or unexpected illness or injury, Vontier provides you with time to rest and recover, or receive treatment.

• Sick time – Regular full-time employees are eligible for paid sick days. Programs vary by operating company. You can request details from Human Resources. Unused sick days cannot be carried over to the next year and they are not paid out upon termination.
• Short-term disability – Employees needing more time can transition to company-paid short-term disability (STD) coverage. Vontier's short-term disability coverage provides you with a percentage of your weekly salary for a certain number of weeks, up to a weekly maximum. Plan provisions may vary by operating company. Please check with your local HR department for the benefits that apply to you.
• Long-term disability – For longer illnesses or injuries, company-provided long-term disability (LTD) coverage provides benefits after you have been disabled for 180 days. LTD insurance (for non-union only) pays 50% of your salary, up to a maximum of $4,166 per month. All eligible employees may also choose to purchase additional long-term disability insurance to replace up to 60% of your salary.

In the unfortunate event of the death of a family member, you may take paid time off for bereavement, depending on the deceased’s relation to you. You can request more information about bereavement leave from Human Resources.

The Family and Medical Leave Act (FMLA) provides eligible employees the opportunity to take up to 12 or 26 weeks of unpaid, job-protected leave per year for certain reasons, such as having a baby or caring for a sick family member. In most cases, your FMLA leave will run concurrently with any paid disability benefits, pregnancy disability, and/or parental leave. You can request more information about FMLA from Human Resources.

Parental leave

All regular full-time employees, including the non-birthing parent, are eligible for up to six weeks of paid parental leave at 100% of base salary. This leave allows you to bond with and care for your newly born or adopted child and may be taken in one-day or one-week increments any time in the 12-month period following your child’s birth or adoption.

If you have exhausted your vacation time, you may be able to take an unpaid leave of absence for nonmedical personal matters, including family matters not covered under Family and Medical Leave. You can request more information about personal leave from Human Resources.

Vontier supports involvement in community causes that matter to you by offering paid time off each year to spend volunteering with a local charity. We also team up to dedicate a full working day to improving our communities around the world for our annual Vontier Day of Caring.  Every year, our teams around the world dedicate a day to supporting the causes they care about in their local communities. Team members can choose their own Day of Caring activity or serve with a group. From packing meals for hungry kids to keeping streets clean, we’re giving back and working together to create a better world.
