We would find it useful if employees couldn't just delete holiday from their planner, but instead request holiday to be deleted through their manager. For example, we add some holiday dates for christmas office closure, however employees can still delete these if they wanted to, causing issues with holiday allocation. If employees required approval to delete holidays, or if there was an option to lock admin added holidays so employees couldn't delete them, that would be great.
Describe the Challenge | Accurate holiday allocation |
I agree that any cancellation of a holiday should be authorised, not only for the reasons already detailed but if the work has been covered or other arrangements have been made with others as that employee was due to be away, then the line manager needs to have the option to decline the cancellation if needed.
I agree with the need to block employees deleting admin added holidays to the system, we block book Christmas holidays for the whole company when the office is closed.
