What is Leave Management System

Leave Management System Software

A leave management system is a smart and easy way to keep track of your staff’s leave records. It helps you record, manage, and track their leave requests in a fair and efficient manner. It also makes sure that your work is not affected when your employees are away.

Automating the leave management system makes it even easier to track, approve, or deny leave requests.

Faculty leave is a provision that lets staff stay away from work for genuine reasons, of course with prior approval from authorities. It can be granted for various reasons, such as planned activities, medical grounds, or extraordinary circumstances.

However, leave cannot be claimed as an faculty right and is thus categorised under various heads as per the rules and norms laid down by the Government of India. Managing the leaves of faculty and staff throughout an entire year is a tedious process.

This process can be easily simplified with efficient leave management software.

A Leave Management System is designed to help organisations set up staff leave policies and manage their leaves seamlessly. The software allows configuring different types of leaves, including paid leaves, leaves without pay, sick leaves, casual leaves, medical leaves, and much more.

Additionally, faculties can check the status of their leave, or daily attendance records, and apply for leave using the software.
