What does absence management mean?

Absence management involves systematically recording, monitoring and analysing employee absences from work. It includes all types of absences such as sick leave, holidays, parental leave and leave of absence. Good absence management gives the organisation control over personnel costs, scheduling and helps to identify patterns that may indicate problems with the work environment or health.

What can an absence system help with?

An absence management system collects all absences in one place and provides an overview of who is away and why. Employees can apply for leave digitally, managers approve directly in the system and absences can be planned. An absence management system also removes manual routines and facilitates scheduling and resource planning.
