Employee Self-Service (ESS) and Manager Self-Service (MSS) enable employees to request Time Off while providing managers the tools they need to check available balances, estimate future entitlements, and see who else is scheduled out before approving a Time Off request.
Reward Positive Attendance Behavior
Happy and motivated individuals make productive team players. By operating under a team approach, your organization can become more successful. A major factor in motivating employees is being able to acknowledge an individual for a job well done based on objective and quantifiable criteria. Through the use of a Point System, it’s easy to recognize those individuals who contribute most to your organization.
The Point System can be arranged to assign either positive or negative points to employees based on attendance behavior.

Systematically evaluating an employee’s attendance behavior ensures accurate performance recognition based on facts rather than subjective review.

Both employees and managers have the ability to enter comments directly on a timesheet in order to keep historical records of communication. Audit reports track additions, deletions, and changes made to each timesheet to ensure accuracy and compliance.
