It is standard for employers to offer their employees a variety of benefits, like health insurance, 401k plans, and life insurance.
The one benefit that can make a huge difference in the way a physician works and lives is paid time off.
Paid time off, or PTO, includes sick days, vacation days, and personal days. It refers to any amount of time that you can take off from work and still receive pay. Almost all employers offer full-time employees some amount of PTO as a job perk, though that amount varies from company to company.
