Simple Leave Requests

Accurate Leave Balances
Keep employee leave balances up to date with automatic calculations for entitlements, accruals and carry-over.

- Automatic approval routing

Keep Employee Leave Balances Accurate
Leave balances should not depend on manual spreadsheet calculations.
Set your leave policies once and let the system handle the calculations. ConnectSimpli helps manage employee entitlements, accruals and carry-over while keeping balances updated when leave is approved.
Automatic Accruals
Allow employee leave to build according to the rules you set.
Carry-Over
Manage leave that is carried from one period to another according to your company policy.
Up-to-Date Balances
Employees and HR teams can see current leave information without checking separate records.
Make Employee Absence Management Easier
Employee absence can affect schedules, workloads and team performance. A clear absence management process helps managers know when people are away and plan work more effectively.
ConnectSimpli gives HR teams and managers better visibility of employee absence and approved time off from one shared system.
Use your leave and absence data to understand team availability and reduce avoidable scheduling problems.
See Who Is Off Before You Plan
A shared employee leave calendar gives managers a clear view of current and upcoming absences.
See which employees are off, identify possible clashes and plan team cover before approving new leave requests.
This makes it easier to keep important work moving while still giving employees the time off they need.
Manage Different Leave Policies in One System
Not every employee has the same leave rules.
ConnectSimpli lets you create different leave policies, entitlements, accrual rules and leave types for different teams, roles or locations.
This is useful for businesses with multiple departments, different working arrangements or teams based in different locations.
