Why BrightHR? / Managing absences

Firstly, it’s important to clearly outline your company policies in terms of sick leave, annual leave, long-term illness, and absenteeism so your employees are well aware of what you expect from them. Expertly written HR document templates that you can access for free on BrightBase can help you hit all the right notes with your documentation.

But just having the right policies in place is never enough. Onboard your employees into an end-to-end HR software like BrightHR to help you maintain a central schedule, log absences, and track lateness across all your teams. It’ll shave hours off your HR admin!

Dealing with absenteeism isn’t always easy. Especially when it happens frequently and without much notice.

The best way to manage unplanned absences and support your employees is to make sure that your business isn’t at risk if someone suddenly needs time off.

Say goodbye to managing absences on manual spreadsheets, and hello to award-winning software like BrightHR. Our software not only allows you to log absences, and see who’s on/off in a matter of seconds—it also lets you open up unfilled shifts with instant, automatic notifications to your employees should they wish to pick up extra time on a first come, first served basis. So, you’re always fully staffed and your team has all the manpower they need to meet their goals.

Our absence management software also lets you store accurate records, so you can identify attendance trends and arrange performance reviews if necessary.

No. Because we’re all about offering businesses complete people management solutions. Our absence management software is part of our HR software BrightHR, which includes shift planning, expense and time tracking, holiday management, and more. Using our complete software is much more time-saving and cost-effective than buying standalone tools that can’t interact and speak to each other.
