I’m in HR. I understand that with a salaried position the hours I clock do not impact my pay. But if I am pulling 12 hour days, if I enter those numbers on my time sheet, will that help get me obtain more sick and vacation time?

Employers are wise to keep accurate records of the hours worked, even by salaried exempt employees. However, this will not usually entitle the employee to additional sick time or vacation time. That is because most companies cap the amount of sick time and vacation time that employees accrue, based on an 8 hour day. Suppose John is a salaried employee who accrues 1.0 hours of sick time and 1.0 hours of vacation time when he works an 8-hour day. Most payroll programs are set up so that if John works 12 hours one day, he does not earn 1.5 hours of sick time or vacation time. John still accrues a maximum of 1.0 hours of sick time and 1.0 hours of vacation time, for the day, as if he had worked 8 hours.
