Time Off Management

What is time off management?

Time off management is the administration of employees’ time off in a company. By law, companies must comply with the minimum local leave entitlement requirements. How companies manage time off depends on both local laws and internal company policies.

The most common types of time off include vacation and sickness. However, other types of time off include:

Parental leave
Bereavement leave
Military leave
Sabbatical leave

As mentioned above, how many days an employee is entitled to is subject to employment contract, local and national rules on annual leave entitlements. In an effort to stay competitive, employers may offer additional time off for their employees. Due to the variation of time off regulations, it is important to work with an absence management software and have clear strategies on time off management.
