It is possible to purchase additional annual leave each year, up to a maximum number of days equivalent to your standard working week. Such requests will need to be initiated from the staff database and approved by your SLT leader.
To start such a request, press the following button on the dashboard.
The form will open and you'll see the following prompt. The request requires you just to enter the number of additional days you wish to purchase and press Submit Request
If you have already made such a request, you will see the following prompt. This will tell you of all currently approved or pending requests. It is possible to make multiple requests as long as the total days requested does not go over the standard working week limit.
Upon submission, an email will be sent to the approver, sending them to the Pending Approval page. Here they will have two buttons per request and can approve or reject.
When a decision is made, you will receive an email automatically informing you. Should the request be approved, your allowance and remaining days for that year will have been amended accordingly and the new number of days remaining will be listed in the email.
Upon approval an email is also sent to the Finance team to make the necessary adjustments to your monthly payroll deductions and to HR for their awareness. Notes detailing the request and decision will be recorded on your staff database profile.
If rejected, an email is still sent to you but no changes made to the allowance nor any notification to Finance or HR.
