No they aren't.
I've worked many jobs, mostly retail and food service that has no option for any pto, sick or otherwise.
If you wanted time off outside of your scheduled hours, you could try to switch shifts with someone, or get someone to cover your shift, or, depending on the company, ask them for unpaid time, some would sometimes allow that, some wouldn't.
How many frags did you make?
Right, but this chart it saying it doesn't exist at all. That's not true. "Universal" paid sick leave/vacation would be a better descriptor than "generous."
