Holidays

Holiday Configuration

In the Configurations section, you have the ability to define company-wide holidays and tailor holiday schedules to suit the specific requirements of your location and organization. As an Admin, Manager, or HR personnel, you can create a new holiday policy or an annual vacation type.

Creating a New Policy

To start, click on the 'Add Policy' button. Below are the steps to create a new policy.

Assigning Policy According to Contract Types

The newly created policy must be assigned according to the types of contracts. These currently include:
  • Employment contract
  • B2B Paid Holidays
  • B2B Unpaid Holidays

In our example, we are using the employment contract type. Next, we will determine:
  • Number of days for the new policy (1 day)
  • If it will be a loyalty day off
  • If the policy should carry over to the next year

Holiday Policy Considerations

  • Variability: Policies may differ for each organization.
  • Accrual: Consider whether remaining days carry over to the next year or if loyalty days are added to the general balance.
  • Example: In this case, a simpler holiday type is used.
When setting up the system, consider the company's rules for employee holidays. For instance, determine if new employees are eligible for time off in their first year. If eligible, the system should add and pay for the holiday, updating the overall balance with an additional day. To confirm this, navigate to the 'Employee Profile' in the 'Holidays' section to view the updated number of paid days.
To complete the creation of a new policy, follow these steps:
  • Step 1: Click on the 'Add' button.
  • Step 2: A confirmation message will appear at the top.
