The Paper Store offers this program to you and your immediate family at no cost to you.
Vacation time with pay is available to regular full-time employees (employees who regularly work 35 or more hours per week) to provide opportunities for rest, relaxation and personal pursuits. Vacation time is accrued at a specific rate per month based upon the employee’s years of service.
Part-time employees who transfer to a full-time position will begin to accrue vacation time beginning on their first day in the full-time position. All employees need to have completed 90 consecutive days of employment to use accrued vacation time. For purposes of determining “Years of Service”, The Paper Store will use the employee’s most recent hire date (in situations where an employee is rehired).
All full-time employees must request vacation time off using myADP.com and their Manager will need to approve.
Vacation time should be used in the calendar year in which it is earned. Unused vacation time in excess of 5 days, will be forfeited at the end of the calendar year. Carried over vacation days must be used in the next calendar year. For example, if, as of December 31st, an employee has 6 days of accrued but unused vacation, the employee may carry over 5 of those vacation days (to use in the next calendar year) and will lose the remaining 1 vacation day.
Accrued but unused vacation time is paid out to employees upon separation of employment.
Vacation time is not considered hours worked for purposes of determining or calculating overtime.
There are “black-out periods” throughout the year when vacation time may not be used, and vacation time requests during these periods will not be approved. Please reference the appropriate EIB for dates.
Exempt employees who work significantly more hours than the norm may be granted “Comp Time” by The Paper Store, at its discretion. Any grant of “Comp Time” will be made via a “Comp Time Grant Form” to be signed by Tom Anderson, Craig Hewitt, Sara Carbonier, Kim Driscoll, Deb Shanley or Vanessa Keefe. “Comp Time” must be used within 364 days of its granting and its use must be approved, in advance, by the employee’s supervisor.
The Paper Store provides paid sick time to employees in accordance with the applicable state sick time law (except where the state has no sick time law). Sick time can be used for periods of temporary absences due to illness or injury of the employee, the employee’s spouse, or the employee’s child. Please note, sick time is not considered hours worked when calculating overtime. Please review the Employee Information Booklet and applicable state addendum for sick policy details.

Short-Term Disability (STD) is a salary continuance plan. If you become ill or injured and
are unable to work,
a portion of your income will be replaced through a combination of sick leave, State
Disability Insurance
(where available) and the Company’s Short-Term Disability benefit for up to 25 weeks.
Your
STD benefits
begin on your eighth day of disability and continue until you are able to return to work or
25 weeks,
whichever happens first. This benefit is provided at no cost to you.
If you exhaust your STD benefits and are still unable to work, you will be covered by LTD insurance at 60% of your salary, to a maximum of $13,000/month.

Part A (Hospital Insurance):
Helps cover inpatient care in hospitals, skilled nursing facility care, hospice care, and home health care.
Part D (Drug coverage):
Helps cover the cost of prescription drugs (including many recommended shots or vaccines). You join a Medicare drug plan in addition to
Original Medicare, or you get it by joining a
Medicare Advantage Plan
with drug coverage. Plans that offer Medicare drug coverage are run by private insurance companies that follow rules set by Medicare.
Medicare Supplemental Insurance (Medigap): Extra insurance you can buy from a private company that helps pay your share of costs in Original Medicare. Policies are standardized, and in most states named by letters, like Plan G or Plan K. The benefits in each lettered plan are the same, no matter which insurance company sells it.
