Track Holidays and Leave

Track holidays, entitlements, TOIL and more, and see who's in at a glance on your company or team calendars. See who's used up most of their leave, which teams may need to book some, and set custom allowances for different departments, teams or job types.

Set Custom Leave Types

Beyond the traditional leave types such as parental, bereavement and holiday, you can create your own types of custom leave – and decide whether or not it comes out of an entitlement. Birthday leave, duvet days, jury service, charity days and more – or invent your own!

Last year we had the pleasure of implementing Sense for our organisation, and "the experience has been nothing short of exceptional."

Build Approval Workflows

Decide who needs to approve each type of request – and automatically route each request to the right person, or people. If people have multiple line managers, you can specify more than one approver, and decide whether just one, or all, need to approve the request.

Lock Days

Set green and red days for when people can and can't book holidays – perfect for busy, frontline teams or industries swayed by the seasons. Lock busy days, busy weeks, or even busy months – or decide which types of workers can book which types of leave during each period.

Employee Self Service

Give people an easy way to view their personal calendars, see upcoming leave, check remaining entitlements, see who else is off, and submit holiday requests for approval. The Sense HR mobile app gives each worker access to the features and tools you set for them.

AI Analysis

Your HR assistant AMI can helpn you analyse holiday and leave data. Ask questions abotu who's off, or discover insights and trends that traditional reports may not reveal – such as which teams have a high outstanding entitlement, or which teams are likely to be short-staffed.

Custom Holiday Rules

Decide how holiday rules work, either on a company-wide basis, or customise it by team, department, location, or job type. Let employees request holidays by the hour or by the day, give people different entitlements, and specify which managers need to approve which requests.

Heatmaps & Planners

See who is in or out at a glance in your company or team planner, and see colour-coded days based on public holidays, locked days, or the types of events people have booked. Heatmaps show you the days people are most likely to be away, and filter by team or cohort.

Calendar Integrations

Integrate your holiday and leave data with other external tools, with ready-made integrations built for systems like Google or Microsoft calendars. Or, build any type of integration or connection you like, with any external calendar system that has an API, using Sense Automate.
