About PTOPayout
PTOPayout provides free, accurate employment calculators for US workers navigating job transitions. Whether you're resigning, being laid off, or evaluating a new offer, our tools help you understand exactly what you're owed.
PTOPayout was built by employment law researchers and software engineers to give US workers free, accurate tools to understand their rights when leaving a job. All data is sourced from official state labor department websites and the US Department of Labor.
Our Mission
Employment law is complex and varies dramatically by state. Workers leaving their jobs often don't know their rights — whether PTO payout is required, how severance is calculated, or what their total compensation is truly worth. We built PTOPayout to close that knowledge gap with free, accessible tools backed by verified legal data.
Data Accuracy
Every data point on this site is sourced from official state labor department websites and the US Department of Labor. We cite specific law sections (e.g., California Labor Code § 227.3) and link to official sources so you can verify the information yourself.
Our data is reviewed and updated regularly. All state minimum wage rates, PTO payout laws, and overtime rules reflect current 2026 requirements.
