Thanks,

You work 8 hours you earn 4 hours Leave. This rate can vary depending on what you read in the fine print.
i worked with a captain who worked under that system at ACBL. he hated it and said it seemed like he never got proper pay the way it was so convoluted. YMMV
It is “accumulated time off”. It’s standard language in IBU contracts to negate unemployment claims.

Im not sure Id interpret ATO as “… language in IBU contracts to negate unemployment claims…” Its just another form of compensation thats pretty much standard in most industries.

ATO is a scam. At any given point, the company has money that you have earned, but they pay it out to you slowly.

It makes pay stubs way harder to read, and mistakes harder to spot. my 2 cents
