When do I put in my VAC or PLD?

BNSF has a unique rule when it comes to requesting use of single-day vacations or personal leave days.

The current rule is that single-day vacations and personal leave day requests can be requested in the computer at 90 days from the completion of the requested day.

Approval for single day vacations and personal leave days will be approved sixty (60) days from the requested day. It is suggested you watch WorkforceHub for approvals.

This tool defaults to eighty-nine (89) days from the request date. The ninty (90) days is from the completion of the single-day vacation or personal leave day.

Example

If you wanted your personal leave day or vacation day to start on July 4^th, and end on July 5^th. Your need to request ninty (90) days from July 5^th.

Therefore, the earlies that you can request a July 4^th single-day vacation or personal leave day is on April 5^th.
