Leave requests

Important

This feature requires the following feature flag: Portail Collaborateur domain > Employee Leave Requests label.

An employee acquires different types of leave days when working for a company: paid leaves, additional rest days, maternity/paternity leaves, and so on. The number of days depends on the employee's work contract as well as on the policies implemented by the company. These leave counters are available in the portal so employees can quickly and easily send leave requests to their managers, or any person in charge of validating these requests.

There are as many leave counters as there are leave types. Each counter displays a summary of the rights acquired so that the employee knows exactly how many days to ask for when making a leave request.

When an employee makes a leave request, it is transferred to the person in charge of validating or rejecting the request. At any time, employees can look at the overview of their requests, to know if they are still pending or if they have been validated or rejected.

Leave requests are managed from the Employee module > Leave requests menu.

At the top of the screen, a search interface can be used to filter leave requests to be displayed in the calendar.

The search interface of the screen can be hidden by clicking on . To display it again, click on .
