Replace side spreadsheets, calendar guesswork, and manager inbox approvals with a single self-service leave system.
Managers need to know whether kitchen, bar, floor, and supervisor cover still works before approving time off.
Bank holidays, Christmas, summer events, and local fixtures can all create periods where leave needs tighter approval.
Part-time, casual, split-shift, and zero-hour teams make leave balances difficult to manage manually.
Every feature is included on one simple plan, so you do not need a larger HR suite just to manage leave properly.
See approved and pending leave across kitchen, bar, floor, cleaning, and management before saying yes.
Track time back for bank holidays, late finishes, events, and emergency cover shifts.
Staff request leave from their phone instead of relying on WhatsApp messages, paper slips, or rota notes.
Record sickness, return-to-work notes, and repeat absence patterns for busy shift teams.
Hospitality groups can manage several venues while keeping local teams and managers separate.
Export leave and sickness summaries to understand staffing pressure by venue, role, or period.
Leavely keeps holiday entitlement, sickness records, TOIL, audit history, and approval visibility in one place for owner-led and operations-led teams.

Practical feedback from staged customer examples used to show the outcomes this page is built around.

“TOIL after bank holidays is much easier to track, especially for the kitchen team.”
Elliot Brown
Owner, Market Yard Bistro
“Our staff use their phones and I get fewer scraps of paper left behind the bar.”
