Set absences to count as vacation days

Workforce allows general managers to configure selected absenteeism types to count as vacation days. This helps maintain compliance and ensures holiday quotas and reports reflect time off accurately.

Start from: The Workforce dashboard.

• Navigate to Configuration > Contracts (or Configuration > Collective Agreements if you manage this at agreement level).

Note: Contracts apply to employees based on their employment periods. Collective Agreements apply to work centres for specific date ranges. Choose the level that matches your policy.

• Create a new record or select an existing Contract/Collective Agreement and open it by clicking Edit.
• Find the option Deduct vacation absenteeism incidents and select:
  • Yes: the contract/agreement will treat selected absenteeism as vacation.
  • No: the contract/agreement will NOT treat selected absenteeism as vacation.
  • According to Collective Agreement: the contract inherits the rule from the applicable Collective Agreement.
• If you chose Yes, proceed to select the Absenteeism incident types that must be deducted as vacation.

• Select Accept to apply the change, or Cancel to discard.

Note: You must have the appropriate permissions to edit Contracts or Collective Agreements. Contact your administrator if options are unavailable.
