Holidays & Policies

Publish the holiday calendar and company policies in one place that everyone can find.

Overview

Holidays & Policies keeps the holiday list and the company’s policies in the portal, so people do not have to hunt through shared drives or email attachments.

Holidays also feed leave and attendance, so they are not counted against balances.
