This checklist outlines the steps necessary for employees to properly submit and manage their time-off requests within the organization. It ensures that all requests are documented, approved, and communicated effectively.
Ensure the employee is aware of the time-off policy, including how much time off they are entitled to and the proper procedures for requesting it.
The employee must fill out the time-off request form indicating the dates of absence and reason for time off.
The employee's manager should review the request to ensure it aligns with team schedules and doesn't disrupt workflow.
Once the manager makes a decision, they must notify the employee regarding the approval or denial of their request.
If approved, update the employee's records to reflect their time-off and make necessary adjustments to the project timelines or workloads.
Inform the HR department about the approved time-off for proper record-keeping and payroll adjustments.
Ensure that any necessary arrangements are made to cover the employee's responsibilities during their absence.
