Leave

Leave management covers configurable leave types, requests, balances, a shared calendar, and compensatory time off.

Requires HR Admin access and the HRMS module. Employees apply for leave from My HR.

Leave types & settings

Configure the leave types your organisation offers — e.g. Annual, Sick, Unpaid — under Settings → HRMS → Leave Types. Leave-wide behaviour (accrual, carry-forward, approval routing) is configured under Settings → HRMS → Leave Settings.

Applying for leave

1. Go to My HR → My Leave.
2. Click + Apply for Leave.
3. Choose the leave type, date range, and add a reason.
4. Submit — the request goes to the employee's manager or HR Admin for approval.

Approving leave

• My Team → Leave Requests — a manager's queue for their direct reports.
• HR Admin → Leave → Leave Requests — the full organisation queue.

Approve or reject each request; an approval deducts from the employee's leave balance automatically.

Leave balances

Every employee's leave balance is visible on My HR → My Leave (their own) and on the employee record in HR Admin. HR Admin can manually adjust a balance — for a correction, a carried-over balance, or a policy exception.

Leave calendar

HR Admin → Leave → Leave Calendar shows everyone's approved leave on a single calendar, so managers can see team availability before approving new requests or scheduling work.

Comp-off (compensatory time off)

For employees who work on an off day or holiday:

1. The employee submits a comp-off request from My HR.
2. It appears in My Team → Comp-offs (for their manager) and HR Admin → Comp-offs (organisation-wide).
3. Approve or reject — an approved comp-off request adds to the employee's available leave.

Tips

• Leave requests, balances and comp-off all follow the same request → approve/reject pattern used across HRMS, so the workflow is consistent whichever queue you're working from.
• Check the Leave Calendar before approving time off during a busy period.
