Paid leave 2025: Survey report

This survey report examines employer paid leave practices in 2025, including how much paid leave employers provide, how paid leave is accrued and used, and how organizations structure and manage paid leave programs compared to peers.

When it comes to employee benefits, paid time off (PTO) is one of the most significant and impactful components of a package. Choosing the correct balance for this benefit is crucial, since employees often become dissatisfied and leave if they feel they might have a better work-life balance elsewhere.

In this survey report, we explore statistics that describe the amount of paid leave that companies allot to their employees and the systems in place for managing the accrual and use of paid leave. An employer can use this data to determine how the paid leave at their company compares to competitors and identify if the systems they follow need adjustment.
