Leave tracking, minus the spreadsheet
An employee leave tracker your team will actually use
Annual leave, sick leave and every other absence in one shared calendar — requested, approved and counted automatically.
Tracking leave in a spreadsheet works right up until two people book the same week, a balance is wrong, or someone forgets to log a sick day. An employee leave tracker puts every absence in one place — so managers can see who's off, approve in seconds, and trust the numbers.
Absenca handles annual leave, sick leave, parental leave, unpaid leave and any custom type you add, with public holidays applied per office so leave is always counted correctly.
One shared leave calendar
See who's off and who's available across the team, by department or office — no more chasing a spreadsheet tab.
Fast approvals
Requests route to the right manager and approve in one click, from the web, email, Slack or Teams.
Every leave type
Annual, sick, personal, parental, unpaid, TOIL and custom types — each with its own rules and allowance.
Public holidays built in
Holiday calendars for 190+ countries apply per office, so a week off over a holiday counts correctly.
From request to approved in seconds
An employee picks dates, sees their balance and the impact, and submits. The manager gets a notification and approves or declines with a tap. The calendar, the balance and everyone's view update instantly.
Clash detection and optional limits on how many people can be off at once stop a whole team booking the same week.
Built for multiple offices
Each office can have its own work week, leave year, public holidays and policies, while you keep one organisation-wide view. It's the same tool whether you have one team or several locations across countries.
