Reply to comment by DannyLameJokes in BNY Mellon takes unusual step in overhauling its 401(k) plan by Jumpy-Natural4868

Interesting. I think the two-week rule for people in certain sensitive positions with to make sure that you were gone long enough that you weren't doing anything shady because someone else would have to do your position for 2 weeks and could spot shady activity.

It’s probably pretty rare but I have heard it mentioned before for the same reason you stated.

It's common in the security industry. Mandatory job rotations and vacations to ensure exactly what the person you replied to was saying. Someone out for a long time = a change in work flow that can reveal fraud/theft/etc

yes thats exactly what it is, and I believe its required by the OCC. However to their point that rule effectively dictates the entire use of your PTO.

In multiple sensitive positions I've been in at multiple institutions, the rule has always been 5 business days.

A full 2 weeks is excessive. Don't get me wrong - 2 weeks off is nice, but when that's pretty much someone's entire stock of time off that's too much.
