Visual Leave Calendar
See who's off and when on an interactive team calendar. Spot coverage gaps before they happen. Filter by department, team, or leave type.
Gantt Calendar
Visual leave calendar with horizontal bars, employee names, month navigation, and today highlight. See your whole team at a glance.
One-Click Leave Approvals
Managers approve or decline leave requests in a single click. No more back-and-forth emails. Employees get notified instantly.
Smart Approval Cards
See remaining balance and department clashes before approving. Green, amber, red indicators make every decision instant.
Automatic Leave Balance Tracking
Leave allowances, used days, pending requests, and remaining balance are calculated automatically. No more spreadsheet formulas.
Custom Leave Policies
Create unlimited leave types — holiday, sick, TOIL, compassionate, parental, study leave, and more. Set custom allowances per policy.
Accrual-Based Leave
Choose between upfront or monthly accrual per policy. Monthly accrual builds up 1/12th each month — perfect for new starters.
TOIL Management
Track time off in lieu (TOIL) alongside regular leave. Employees earn and use TOIL hours with full audit trail visibility.
UK Public Holidays Built In
Pre-loaded bank holidays for England, Scotland, Wales, and Northern Ireland. Leave allowances are always calculated correctly around public holidays.
Company-Wide Leave Blocks
Set company shutdown periods (Christmas, summer) that automatically apply to all employees. No individual requests needed.
Balance Adjustments
Managers adjust leave allowances inline with a reason. Full audit trail records who changed what and why.
Balance Overview
See every employee's leave balance on one page with colour-coded bars. Sort by who's running low and filter by department.
Spot absence patterns before they hurt.
Bradford Factor scoring, return-to-work forms, clash detection — everything UK HR actually needs.
Sickness Reports
Dedicated sickness absence report showing sick days, occurrences, and Bradford Factor per employee. Spot patterns at a glance.
Bradford Factor Monitoring
Automatically calculate Bradford Factor scores to identify absence patterns. Spot frequent short-term absences before they become a problem.
Return-to-Work Forms
Built-in return-to-work interview forms after absence. Digitise your RTW process and keep records attached to each leave request.
Department Clash Detection
Real-time warnings when booking leave shows who else in the same department is already off. Prevents understaffing before it happens.
Blackout Dates
Block leave during critical business periods — quarter-end, peak season, audits. Employees see clear warnings when dates are restricted.
Minimum Notice Period
Set per-policy notice requirements — e.g. 14 days for annual leave. Prevents last-minute bookings that leave teams scrambling.
From the published shift to the final export.
Plan work, capture time and expenses, then give managers a clean evidence trail. Ultra adds a controlled way for employees to find cover.
Rotas & Shift Publishing
Build weekly rotas, use shift templates, check scheduled hours and publish a clear schedule to the team.
QR & Location-Aware Clock-Ins
Staff scan a workplace QR code or clock in from their account. When location is required, Leavely captures device coordinates with the event; it does not claim geofence verification.
Breaks & Actual Hours
Clock breaks separately, enforce a minimum break where configured, compare actual time with scheduled time and retain adjustment history.
Expense Claims
Submit expenses with receipts, route them to the right manager, record decisions and export a clean claim history.
Payroll-Ready Exports
Export time, rota, leave and absence records as CSV for payroll review. Leavely supplies the evidence; it does not run payroll.
Shift Cover Marketplace
UltraEmployees offer future published shifts, eligible colleagues volunteer, and a scoped manager approves the reassignment after live leave and schedule-conflict checks.
Your whole team, beautifully organised.
Directory, invites, self-service, service-based entitlement, delegations, offboarding — the people side, handled.

Service-Based Entitlement
Automatically award extra leave days based on length of service. Configure tiers — e.g. +1 day after 2 years, +3 after 5 years.

Approval Delegation
Managers set a temporary delegate when they're away. The delegate sees and can approve leave requests for the manager's team.
