Did you know that, using LeaveMaster, you can get an instant overview of all your leave requests for the current year and see the status of each request at a glance?
LeaveMaster’s invaluable Leave Status feature provides you with a complete list of all your leave requests for the current year. You can see the start and end date of each leave request, as well as the number of days you have asked to take off for each period of leave and the type of leave requested.
For each leave request, you can also see whether the leave has been approved or rejected, or is still pending authorisation from your line manager.

As discussed in previous blogs this week, the Bradford Factor is a powerful tool for tackling absenteeism as it enables you to identify employees whose “little and often” absences are damaging your business and deters staff from taking unwarranted sick days.
But why should you get a leave management solution such as LeaveMaster to automatically-calculate the formula for you? Why not calculate it manually?
Calculating the ongoing Bradford Factor score for every employee in your organisation, either manually or using a spreadsheet, would be time-consuming, complicated and highly labour-intensive, with each employee’s score having to be re-calculated every time they called in sick.
To be effective as a deterrent and for the Bradford Factor statistics to be used in disciplinary hearings, the process for calculating the formula would also have to be fool-proof and the data indisputable. But if you were to mistakenly put the wrong number of episodes of absence into the equation, the exponential nature of the formula would mean that an employee’s Bradford Factor score could be doubled or even tripled, resulting in unwarranted disciplinary action against the employee and a loss in confidence in the system.

As employees plan the leave they wish to take this year and begin to put in holiday requests, making sure that personnel who perform the same, or similar, business-critical functions spread out their leave and do not book holidays at the same time will be imperative.
An invaluable feature of LeaveMaster is that it allows you to see at a glance who in your company has booked leave, or will be otherwise absent, and when, so you can make informed decisions before authorising staff leave and avoid leaving business-critical functions under-staffed.
