    What is absence management?
    Absence management is the process of recording and tracking all employee absences within an organisation. Absence management includes tracking sickness absences from work - everything from who should be informed if an employee is ill, the reason for their absence, how long they need to take off from work, and how all of this information is recorded.

    Good absence management practices mean that employees feel supported, resources can be carefully planned around absences, and any issues within teams can be addressed accordingly.
    What is leave management?
    Leave management is the process of managing all types of employee leave within an organisation. This is includes annual leave, or holiday entitlement, whereby employees are entitled to take a certain number of days off per year. In the UK, almost all employees are legally entitled to statutory leave which is 5.6 weeks paid holiday per year. This varies in other countries.


    In addition to statutory leave, organisations may also choose to offer additional holiday entitlement to employees.
