Absence

Employee Absence

The Employee Absence area is where all employee absences are recorded. Generally all absence requests are created by the employee using the Dashboard Request Leave function. See the relevant section under Tools for this.
Workplace Incidents can be linked to absences, and reports can be run for absence patterns to get a full picture. Please note that if an Employee has Multiple Jobs, and You Select Part Day, you will be able to Select the Job, the Absence Relates to.
