    Experience

    Holidays are generally happy times. But not for businesses that have no idea who’s in and who’s out.

    Management

    No business should have to spend hours or even weeks calculating the ramifications of absence data.

    Intelligence

    A business is only as successful as its people. Making sure they are rested and happy is key.

    Simple & elegant user experiences.

    Businesses that rely on manual processes for absence and leave put employees, Human Resources, and payroll through hard times. Simply requesting a holiday is a time drain and can be fraught with inaccuracies and questionable security. Separate logins and paper or spreadsheets are inefficient and old-fashioned. edays integrates (using Single-Sign-On) to HR and Payroll and with your calendar (iCal export) for full leave visibility. A simple and elegant experience with not a single spreadsheet in sight.

    Holiday booking made easy.

    Holiday booking made easy. Companies with employees spanning multiple countries know the pain of maintaining multiple sets of legislation and policies to ensure compliance. Employers with people on differing contracts know the struggle of manually calculating holiday entitlement. Businesses with a transient workforce know the headache of manual leaver calculations each month. HR and payroll teams set time aside every, single, month just to tackle the mountain of admin that stacks up behind each holiday request. This isn’t sustainable.

    edays handles global absence, compliance, and variable working patterns, with no manual calculations. It’s super flexible too and will auto-calculate changes in policies, holiday entitlements, and work out leaver calculations. Why wouldn’t you want edays?

    Intelligence that supports your people AND your business.

    Intelligence that supports your people AND your business. Managers often accept holiday requests only to realise they’re unable to deliver when multiple members of the team are off at the same time. Lack of easy holiday visibility is a simple fix with edays, so you are never knowingly understaffed again. Managers also have the capability to plan around absence trends and proactively manage employee wellbeing – predicting who might need a break and is at risk of burnout so they can offer the most helpful course of action. Real-time insight into who has taken leave, who has taken very little, or perhaps who has taken far too much, are key HR insights for employee health and wellbeing.

    How to manage holiday as a growing business?

    Managing staff holidays doesn’t have to be filled with admin burden and complex entitlements. It can be a breeze, even for the biggest and fastest-growing businesses.

    We find the edays system excellent and very user-friendly. I’m the master user in the HR team and have found it to be a great system. The help desk at edays is also excellent and always reply with accurate help straight away. Whenever I meet other HR professionals I always recommend edays if they want an effective holiday tracker system.

    Ben Efford (MCIPD), HR Business Partner – Monster Energy

    The edays system has saved us a huge amount of time when it comes to logging and inputting holiday and sickness data. The original process was manual and paper-based, and led to inaccurate recordings, especially when it came to sickness which was often recorded after an employee returned to work and was therefore easier to miss or forget.

    Wendy Godsman, Payroll Team Lead

    We were using an online system, but it wasn’t easy and intuitive for our employees and managers because it wasn’t an absence management tool – it’s mainly known on the market as a ticketing tool. Some of our locations weren’t using it at all. That’s why, when we had to consolidate data, it was a challenge taking us from some days to several weeks to provide the overview and numbers required.
