PTO Exchange Releases the Only SaaS Platform That Converts Unused Paid Time Off into Tangible Goods and Services
Seattle, WA (PRWEB) September 30, 2016 -- PTO Exchange, the leading portable benefits provider for employees, today announced the first-ever SaaS solution that allows employees to convert unused paid time off (PTO) into tangible goods and services. Paid leave is the most prevalent employee benefit in the private sector (according to the Bureau of Labor Statistics), and yet more than 429 million days go unused every year , amounting to $84 billion in lost earnings.
The PTO Exchange platform allows employees to convert unused paid vacation time into tangible goods and services that matter most to them—from vacations and retirement funding to student loans and charitable donations, and even transferring the time to a colleague in need. Further, today PTO Exchange announced a partnership with Priceline™ to allow employees to purchase airfare and hotels through the PTO Exchange platform. For those seeking to make charitable contributions, employees can donate to their choice of more than 1.2 million nonprofits in the PTO Exchange network.
“We developed PTO Exchange to help employees and employers redefine an earned benefit that is under utilized. We help salvage billions of dollars each year by allowing people to self-direct how they use their earned PTO benefits,“ commented Rob Whalen, founder and CEO of PTO Exchange. “We are also driving the next frontier of employee engagement through personalized portable benefits. Our platform will enable employers to offer a superior benefits package that effectively retains their talent base while managing their budgets.“
The PTO Exchange platform was built by a team of technology, HR and industry professionals, and supported by deep employee benefits regulation research. The platform will be showcased during the annual HR Technology Conference in Chicago on October 4-7, 2016 in the Start Up Pavilion at Booth #1246G.
