Activ Absence is our absence management software, which can be used for holiday planning and sickness tracking. Often, absence reporting is completed using paper forms and spreadsheets. However, this can quickly add up to a lot of admin time for the HR team. Activ Absence was designed to replace these manual processes, providing HR managers with time to focus on other areas of the business.
Activ Absence was designed to be simple to use for all members of staff. In just 30 seconds, employees can request time off. This will trigger an email to be sent, notifying the relevant manager of the request. In a couple of clicks, the manager can view, approve or decline the request, with the option of adding a comment to the response.
Our leave of absence software is completely web-based, which means there is no software to download. As long as you have access to a web browser, you will be able to request holidays and track absences. With Activ Absence, you can monitor absences from any time, place or device.
If you choose to use our absence management software, you will gain access to our integrated Technical Support Desk. We can be contacted by phone, email or live chat, where a member of our team will be able to answer your queries. Our team is even available for staff training, ensuring every member of your business knows how to use the online software.
Activ Absence can be used to manage all types of leave, whether planned or unplanned. This can be achieved by creating different approval routes for each type of absence, such as maternity, paternity, compassionate or medical. Within the software, you have the ability to configure as many staff absence types as you need.
Sometimes an employee's working pattern might change from full-time to part-time. In this event, you can configure the system to recalculate their leave entitlements based on their employment contract. Any changes to employee work patterns can be accurately tracked within the management system.
Activ Absence can be accessed 24 hours a day, 365 days a year. As long as you have access to a web browser, you will be able to monitor the holiday calendars and sickness absence of your workforce. You even have the option of using a mobile phone, as we have designed a specific interface for smartphone access.
Activ Absence can be easily linked to third party software. For example, you can link our system to any standard calendar software that supports calendar subscriptions. This includes Microsoft, Google, iOS and Android. In doing so, employees can schedule their work around their planned leave.
The cost of our leave management software will depend on the size of your business. However, you can use our pricing tool to generate a guide price. This will provide you with an estimate of the cost, depending on whether you choose monthly or annual payments. However, for an accurate price of our absence management system, we encourage you to get in touch with our team.
