How to Manage Company Leaves in HORILLA HRMS: Attendance Policies and Compensatory Requests
Company leaves are vital for supporting employees’ work-life balance and ensuring they have designated time off for rest and personal needs. In HRMS, administrators can add and manage these company-wide leave days, allowing employees to know which days are officially recognized as holidays. When an employee requests attendance on a company holiday, HRMS records this as a compensatory attendance request, ensuring that any work done on holidays is acknowledged and can be adjusted in their records. This feature supports accurate attendance tracking while giving employees fair recognition for working on holidays.
