Spanish term or phrase: bono vacacional fraccionado
Esto aparece en las observaciones de una especie de informe que indica las razones por las que una persona dejó de trabajar en una empresa.

"Observaciones:

- Cobro prestaciones sociales
- Cobro vacaciones correspondientes a los períodos 99/2000 y 2000/2001 y fracción de vacaciones y **bono vacacional fraccionado** del 2001"

En Venezuela, cuando uno sale de vacaciones en varias empresas se cobra un mes de sueldo (cobro de vacaciones) + un monto de dinero adicional (bono vacacional) equivalente a un número determinado de días de sueldo (he visto hasta 40 días adicionales de sueldo).

Tal como comenté en el caso de la consulta sobre el pago de las vacaciones, me imagino que el trabajador no completó el año de trabajo, por lo que recibió un bono vacacional fraccionado al dejar de trabajar con la empresa.

Muchas gracias por adelantado por sus sugerencias

accrued vacation time


Explanation:
In the States there is more than 1 system for calculating vacation time. One is PTO (Paid Time Off). The other (which I am more familiar with), is when a worker accrues a certain number of hours/days of vacation time for each month that he/she works. If he/she works without missing any of their shifts, the vacation time adds up to 1 week/ 2 weeks/ 3 weeks/ 4 weeks - whatever that level of worker is entitled to at the end of the year (usually based on seniority or management level). If the person misses some of their work time, then vacation hours accrued is calculated based on the number of hours the employee did work. This shows up as "Accrued Vacation Time".
