Leave management features
built for UK teams
Everything you need to manage employee holidays, sick leave, and absences. All features included in one simple plan — no tiers, no upsells.
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.
One-Click Leave Approvals
Managers approve or decline leave requests in a single click. No more back-and-forth emails. Employees get notified instantly.
Automatic Leave Balance Tracking
Leave allowances, used days, pending requests, and remaining balance are calculated automatically. No more spreadsheet formulas.
Team Directory & Employee Profiles
Manage your entire team in one place. Track roles, departments, start dates, employment details, and complete leave history.
Role-Based Access Control
Four roles — Owner, Admin, Manager, Employee — ensure everyone sees exactly what they should. Managers only see their direct reports.
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.
Advanced absence management tools
Go beyond basic leave tracking. Leavely includes powerful tools for HR compliance, reporting, and automation — all included at no extra cost.
Custom Leave Policies
Create unlimited leave types — holiday, sick, TOIL, compassionate, parental, study leave, and more. Set custom allowances per policy.
TOIL Management
Track time off in lieu (TOIL) alongside regular leave. Employees earn and use TOIL hours with full audit trail visibility.
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.
Email Notifications
Automatic email alerts for new leave requests, approvals, rejections, and upcoming leave. Keep everyone informed without chasing.
Company-Wide Leave Blocks
Set company shutdown periods (Christmas, summer) that automatically apply to all employees. No individual requests needed.
Team Invitations
Invite employees via email with a single click. They set up their profile and start requesting leave immediately.
