Do you credit staff additional entitlements, on top of basic holiday allowance? If so then e-days can be configured to accommodate these as well, along with the ability to set up automated rules to credit the relevant staff at the appropriate points. This can include crediting additional entitlement based on length of service, seniority awards based on age, or simple annual credits for things like birthdays, moving days, or marriage. Another way that this functionality is often used is to accommodate the weekly or monthly accrual of holiday entitlement directly as well. In this webinar we will cover all of this, including how you can create new entitlements, build policies into it to automate the crediting of staff, and how this all works in practice. | |

In this webinar we will walk through a practical example of how to go about this using the tools available within your e-days system. | |
