Managing Absences Easily
With Personio

Personio, our all-in-one HR solution quickly provides you with an overview of employee absences. Within our absence management software, we offer a clearly-laid-out calendar that is part of the tool itself, so that you can easily see who is in the office, out of office, or working remotely. You can even integrate this calendar into your regular calendar, too, as can your employees.

Can Employees Request & Record Their Own Absences?

Personio makes absence management for you and your employees easier. Your employees enter their desired vacation days themselves into our absence management software. This can even be done from the computer, or via smartphone with the Personio app. When a new entry is made, the right people will be notified immediately. Then, you can approve in only a click.

Does Absence Management Software Offer Visibility For Colleagues?

In the calendar view of our leave planner, employees can see when colleagues are absent – whether they are working from their home office, are on vacation, or sick – and can better plan their vacation accordingly.

Can Absence Management Software Help With Absence Coordination?

If several people want to take time off within the same time period, Personio’s absence management tool helps with the coordination. Especially in departments such as customer service, it is particularly important that there is sufficient staff available at all times. Managing this with post-it notes or even by just relying on one’s memory can quickly lead to trouble.

Can Absence Management Software Handle Sick Leave?

Personio’s intelligent leave planner even reminds your employees to submit their medical certificates. These can simply be uploaded and are available to both HR and supervisors.

Does Absence Management Software Remind Employees?

Employees who forget to submit their certificate on Personio will see an open to-do on their dashboard. So, HR managers should no longer have to chase after medical certificates; making absence management much simpler.

How Flexible Is An Absence Management Software?

Personio offers multiple options to configure your settings – this way, our absence management software adapts to your needs. For example, you can define how the approval process is supposed to run, and who should be notified.

Absence types, too, can be based on the particular circumstances of your company. In addition to vacation and sick days, you can use the absence management software to manage business travel, training, and/or home office days.
