Paid Time Off

To promote a healthy work-life balance, CF Industries provides eligible employees with Paid Time Off (PTO).

Paid Holidays

You will receive 11 paid holidays each year (88 hours)

Important Note: 12-hour shift employees receive 88 hours’ STAT bank, accrued along each holiday observed rather than company-observed holidays.

Any accrued, unused vacation, STAT, CDO (Compensating Days Off), or TOIL (Time Off in Lieu) time will be paid out upon exit of the company. 

Paid Time Off

On January 1 of each year, you are granted Paid Time Off (PTO) based on your projected length of continuous service at the end of that year, although PTO is earned ratably throughout the year.

Length of Service (as of the end of the year) Paid Vacation Time Granted each January 1
