Bradford Factor leave type is a leave type that is specific to the UK and other European countries. In General, the HRIS systems of most companies are only able to pull out reports for the most common types of leave such as annual leave, sick leave, casual leave, etc, and are unable to extract reports for specific leave types such as the Bradford factor. With OrangeHRM, users are now able to generate reports for leave types such as Bradford factor as well.
Note: The Bradford factor report generates a report for selected employees for the past 12 months from the date it is executed.
It aims to highlight people over a 12-month rolling period, who have had many spells of absence rather than 1 long absence that might be quite legitimate. E.g. Seasonal flu etc.
