ABSENCE REASONS
For an employer, it's not enough just to know which workers are out, you also want to have at least a rough idea as to why. This makes light work out of spotting trends and repeat absentees further down the line.

Employee holiday requests are a cinch with EAC; all requests are electronically time stamped allowing them to be granted on a fair, first come first served basis, with a clear audit trail. Employees simply log into their personal EAC smartphone App and can see an overview of their existing holiday bookings, balance and any pending requests.

HOLIDAY REPORTING
Line Managers and Administrators will be presented with a clear view of the employee's calendar, showing their personal holiday status, approved bookings, days remaining and any other absences. Annual leave requests made via the EAC clocking in app will be reflected on employee balances when once they have been approved or rejected.
Or you can see the status of every employee in a single report, including what their balance is and if these might be building up near busy times or towards the end of the year.
