Leave Management

Policies, balances and approval flows — auto-flowing into payroll and attendance.

  • 4-week rollout
  • SOC 2 · ISO 27001
  • Trusted by 1,200+ teams

Leave that runs itself

Policies, balances, approvals and encashment — encoded once, applied consistently, fed straight into payroll.

Configurable policies

PL, SL, CL, ML, paternity, sabbatical, comp-off — per country, per grade.

Live balances

Real-time across timezones, with accruals and forecasts.

Approvals that flow

Routed to the right manager, with auto-approval rules.

Holiday calendar

Per-location holidays, optional days, year-end planning.

Encashment to payroll

Computed and dispatched in the next cycle — no spreadsheets.

Reports

Liability, abuse patterns, peer-leave clusters — drillable.

Policies

Policies you encode, not negotiate

Define rules once — carry-forward, accrual, encashment, blackout windows — and they apply consistently across the org. No more email threads about whether ML carries over.

  • Per-country, per-grade, per-location overrides.
  • Accrual schedules: monthly, quarterly, anniversary.
  • Carry-forward, lapse, encashment — explicit, audited.

Balances

Balances every employee can see

Real-time balances with forecasts, accrual schedules and end-of-year projections. Employees plan their year; HR stops being a balance-lookup desk.

  • Forecast end-of-year balance based on accrual + plans.
  • Drill from a balance into every transaction that built it.
  • Mobile-first — check, plan, request from anywhere.

Approvals

Approvals that don't pile up

Routed to the right line manager with team-coverage context. Auto-approval rules for routine cases. Nudges before SLAs slip. Escalation that escalates.

  • Approver sees team coverage before deciding.
  • Auto-approval for routine cases (SL < 2 days, etc.).
  • Escalation chain triggered on SLA breach.

Payroll flow

Encashment computed, paid, recorded

Year-end encashment, leave-without-pay, and unused-leave write-offs flow into payroll automatically — statutorily correct, fully audited.

  • Encashment formulae per policy, with explainable computation.
  • Tax handling for encashment per jurisdiction.
  • Reflected in payslip with breakdown your employees understand.

Common questions

Highly. Policies are defined as rules: accrual, carry-forward, lapse, encashment, prerequisites, blackout windows, country/grade/location overrides. You change configuration, not code.

Yes. The mobile app supports applying, approving, withdrawing, and checking team coverage. Approvers get push notifications and Slack/Teams hooks if you turn those on.

Leave consumption respects shift patterns — a day-off shift doesn't consume leave, a 12-hour shift consumes 1.5x balance, and you can configure both.

India pack covers state holidays, Shops & Establishments-specific rules, and statutory minimums. We update packs as legislation changes.
