Take a look at how it works
Gain policy creation that gives you time back
Confidently create and customise absence and accrual policies that align with guidelines wherever your teams are based. Deploy them dependably across the employee lifecycle.
Make taking time off easier than ever
Save up to 80% of the time spent processing leave requests: employees request their absences and select substitutes as needed. Managers then easily approve them, all in just one click.
Enable employees to check remaining leave
Avoid any potential errors and save time by calculating holiday balances correctly. Personio automatically calculates vacation and instantly shows all employees how many days they have taken and how many they have left.
See absences at a glance, at all times
Who is out sick? Who has holidays coming up? Managers and HR can view absences in one simple calendar overview to accommodate easy planning. Effective reporting can help evaluate sick leave and determine early on when you need to take action.

How does Personio’s absence management software help?
Personio's absence management software provides a clearly laid-out calendar as part of our all-in-one HR software, so that you can easily see who is in working, off or has leave planned. You can integrate this calendar into your calendar, as can your employees. Leave can also be requested and approved in two clicks, while absences can be displayed automatically as statuses on instant messaging apps.
What is absence management software?
Absence management software helps organisations to efficiently handle employee absences, such as vacation days, sick leave, parental leave and other types of time off.
Absence management software automates the process of requesting, tracking, and managing employee absences, replacing manual systems. It provides a centralised platform where employees can submit leave requests, managers can approve or deny requests and HR personnel can oversee and maintain accurate records of employee absences.
How to manage employee leave with absence management software
Personio makes absence management easy for you and your employees. Your employees enter their desired vacation days into our absence management software. This can even be done from the computer, or via the Personio app or from our partner instant messaging apps such as Slack and MS Teams. When a request is made, the right people will be notified immediately. Then, they can approve in just one click.
Does absence management software offer visibility for colleagues?
In the calendar view of our employee self service system, employees can see when colleagues are absent – whether they are working from their home office, are on vacation, or sick – and can better plan their vacation accordingly.
Can absence management software help with absence coordination?
If several people want to take time off within the same time period, Personio’s leave management system helps with the coordination. Especially in departments such as customer service, it is particularly important that there is sufficient staff available at all times. Managing this with spreadsheets or by memory can quickly lead to trouble.
Can absence management software handle sick leave?
Yes, Personio’s intelligent employee self service system even reminds your employees to submit their medical certificates on time. These can simply be uploaded and are available to both HR and the relevant managers.
Does absence management software remind employees to upload certificates?
Employees who forget to submit their certificate on Personio will see an open to-do on their dashboard. So, HR managers will no longer have to chase after medical certificates, making absence management much simpler, across the organisation.
How flexible is absence management software?
Personio offers multiple options to configure your settings – this way, our absence management software adapts to your needs. For example, you can define how the approval process is supposed to run and who should be notified.
Absence types can also be customised for your company. In addition to vacation and sick days, you can use absence management software to manage business travel, training, and/or home office days.
