Annual leave

Annual leave management that knows the rules

Requests, approvals, balances and accruals with statutory leave types built in, and bank holidays that arrive in the calendar by themselves, substitute days included. Approved leave blocks the rota by itself, and staff check their own balance instead of asking you.

No credit card required. Free plan for up to 10 people.

01

Bank holidays import themselves

Bank holidays arrive in the calendar automatically, substitute days included, so nobody re-keys Easter every year. Your leave policies decide how they interact with entitlement.

02

Accruals and statutory types, not just a counter

Entitlements can accrue pro rata on the policy you configure, with statutory leave types available alongside annual leave, and carry-over rules that match how you actually operate. Balances update as leave is approved.

03

Approved leave blocks the rota

Leave lives in the same product as the rota, so an approved request physically blocks those days in the planning grid. The rota is never built against a stale spreadsheet, and clashes are impossible rather than embarrassing.

04

Staff serve themselves

Everyone sees their own balance, requests from their phone, and gets the decision by push notification. Requests route to the right approver, and the "how much holiday do I have left?" conversation retires.

Questions about annual leave

Does it handle statutory leave?

Yes. A statutory leave catalogue, maternity, paternity, adoption, bereavement and the rest, is built in alongside annual leave, and accrual policies are yours to configure. The shipped defaults follow UK statutory minimums.

Are bank holidays automatic?

Yes. Bank holidays land in the calendar by themselves, substitute days included, and your policies decide whether they come out of entitlement. The automatic feed covers England and Wales, Scotland and Northern Ireland today.

Can part-time staff accrue pro rata?

Yes. Accrual-based entitlements handle part-time and variable patterns based on the policy you configure, and balances update as requests are approved.

Do managers see clashes before approving?

Yes. Leave and the rota are one product, so the approver sees who else is off and what the rota needs before deciding, and approved leave blocks the grid automatically.

Which plans include leave management?

Basic time off is in every plan, including Free. Accrual-based entitlements and automatic bank holidays start at the Growth plan, as the pricing page shows.
