Blackout days and events

December 11, 2024

Company events and blackout periods, providing visibility and transparency for employees and management alike

New Feature

At TimeOff, we’ve designed a dedicated section for managing company events and blackout periods, providing visibility and transparency for employees and management alike. Well-communicated blackout days announced in advance give employees sufficient time to plan their leaves without disrupting business operations during busy periods.

The process of setting up blackout days is straightforward. Simply add a blackout day with a description to the calendar, and employees will see it reflected on their personal calendars. On those days, employees will be restricted from booking leave, ensuring smooth operations during critical times.

Company events are meant to keep employees informed about important dates on the company calendar. These can include team-building activities, essential meetings, presentations, and all-hands talks. While these days are not blocked for time-off bookings, they enhance communication and provide convenience by eliminating the need for emails and extra tools, ensuring all employees stay on the same page.

Half-day public holidays

December 9 , 2024

For convenience, the ability to create half-day bank holidays has been added.

Enhancment

This feature was born out of multiple feedback from our customers, especially during the Christmas and Easter seasons. After engaging with our users, it became clear that many businesses designate half-days just before or after public holidays to provide additional time off for employees.

These half-days are either recorded as public holidays or deducted from allowance balances or special earned days.To address this need, we developed the Half-Day Bank Holiday feature.

This enhancement ensures that the experience with TimeOff is smooth and seamless, catering to businesses that want to streamline their leave management process during busy seasons..
