Home Depot to Close Early, Providing Workers with Additional Leave
Home Depot (NYSE: HD) has shortened its hours of operation and improved its paid vacation benefits (PTO) for its employees as the chain continues to adapt its operations to respond to the coronavirus pandemic.

As part of our normal practice, our stores and other facilities are cleaned and cleaned daily. Following the advice of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), we have increased the frequency of cleaning and maintaining general hygiene in stores and other locations. We have stepped up our efforts to disinfect high-traffic, high-contact areas, such as automatic payments, door handles, and bathrooms.
The Home Depot has also made a number of changes to its PTO policies, including:
- Hourly full-time employees will benefit from 80 additional hours of PTO.
- Part-time workers will benefit from 40 hours of overtime.
- Hourly full-time workers over 65 will benefit from 160 hours of PTO.
- Hourly part-time workers over the age of 65 benefit from a total of 80 PTO hours.
- Any worker diagnosed with COVID-19 and anyone directed towards self-quarantine will be paid during this period.
“This incremental PTO can be used anytime for any reason by the end of the year,” said the company.
