Compensatory leave allows employees to take time off in exchange for extra hours worked. Follow the steps below to set it up and assign it to your employees.
Creating a compensatory leave type
Go to Leave > Leave Settings > Leave Types > New Leave Type
When the Add Leave Type window appears, ensure that the Is Compensatory Leave? option is checked.
If needed, tick Allow to override default leave days so employees can request additional compensatory leave without selecting start and end dates.
Continue to set up the rest of the leave type's settings as required. See this article for more information on how to set up a leave type.
Assigning the leave type to employees
Once the leave type has been created, you will need to assign it to employees.
Then, your employees will be able to submit requests for compensatory leave by clicking on the Compensatory Leave Request button instead of the Apply Leave button.
If Allow to override default leave days is enabled, they can select Override no of leave days in the application form and enter the total number of days requested.
Once their request has been approved, they will be able to click on the Apply Leave button to utilise their compensatory leave by selecting the relevant leave type.
