How to assign Leave Nominee [Video]
Applying for leave is common throughout all the organizations in the industry. Employees apply for leave due to many reasons, such as
- sick leave,
- casual leave,
- annual leave,
- maternity leave,
- paternity leave etc
Applying for leave is not an issue, the issue arises when employees fail to notify their supervisor properly, notify the supervisor of the chosen nominees and notifying the nominees as well. OrangeHRM has addressed all these issues through the ‘Apply Leave’ feature.
