Ability for employees to request annual leave via payslip portal

It would be highly beneficial to introduce a feature within the payslip portal that allows employees to request annual leave directly. This functionality would streamline the leave management process by enabling employees to submit requests through the same portal they already use to access their payslips.

Key Features:

  1. Employee Request Functionality:

    • A dedicated section within the payslip portal where employees can submit annual leave requests.

    • Options to select start and end dates, specify full-day or half-day leave, and add notes if needed.

  2. Employer Approval Workflow:

    • Employers or designated managers receive a notification of pending leave requests.

    • Ability to approve or decline requests with optional comments.

    • Once approved, the employee receives confirmation through the portal.

  3. Automatic HR Calendar Integration:

    • Approved leave dates are automatically added to the company’s HR calendar.

    • Calendar view shows team availability to help avoid scheduling conflicts.


Describe the Challenge Benefits: Simplifies leave management for both employees and employers. Reduces manual tracking and the risk of miscommunication or overlapping holidays. Keeps everything centralized within one system, reducing reliance on separate HR tools or email chains. Enhances employee satisfaction by making leave processes more transparent and accessible. This feature would add significant value to the portal by combining payroll and basic HR functionalities in one user-friendly platform.
