Have you ever scheduled a member of your team on a shift not knowing they have an approved holiday authorised? It’s an easy and common mistake to make when manually managing holidays, time off and rotas.
Eliminate errors just like this and streamline the way you work with our intelligent holidays and time off tools. We provide your team with a self-request system too, whilst enabling management to gain full control of all requests in one consolidated space.
Holidays & Time Off
Holiday management dashboard
Our holiday management dashboard ensures you have complete visibility into all holiday request activity and can manage it accordingly.
• View each request line by line including the requested date, venue, when it was requested, the employee’s holidays remaining and the status.
• Requests are sent to authorised managers with other information that might factor into the decision to allow or decline the request. For example, the availability of other team members, work anniversaries and special events where more members of staff may be required on shift.
• Managers are prompted to add a reason when declining a request, which then automatically notifies the employee via email and within their account.
• Utilise filters to view a segmented list of requests such as those that are pending, holidays requested at specific venues and requests from certain employees.
Employee self-service request dashboard
The Kobas self-service request dashboard provides each member of staff with their own holiday dashboard, providing full visibility into their holiday information and allowing them to request days off in seconds, from any internet-connected device.
• The dashboard contains the employee’s assigned holiday total, the quantity remaining, carried over, accrued, approved and pending.
• If the user has authorisation, they can also request holidays or time off for other employees.
