Leapsome Absence Management is a leave-tracking module designed to give employees, managers, and HR a single place to request, approve, and review all types of time off. The system consolidates vacation, sick leave, parental leave, unpaid leave, and custom leave types into a shared platform that shows team and company availability at a glance. Requests are submitted and approved within the platform, balances and approvals update automatically, and managers receive instant notifications to reduce administrative overhead and eliminate paperwork.

The product supports policy-driven configuration—organizations can define leave types, accrual rules, carryover limits, and approval workflows to align with internal policies and local labor laws. Absence records synchronize with employee profiles, calendars, payroll systems, and other HR data sources to ensure accurate payroll calculations and consistent reporting. Mobile access enables on-the-go requests and approvals. Built-in security and privacy practices meet GDPR and ISO 27001 standards, while integrations with time-tracking and payroll tools keep data consistent across HR processes.

AI-powered analytics surface trends, highlight irregularities, and help forecast staffing needs so HR teams can identify hotspots, maintain fairness, and plan resourcing more effectively. Visual absence calendars reduce scheduling conflicts, help balance workloads, and enable managers to plan projects around team availability, improving operational continuity and employee transparency.
