You can view your allowance, your approved days, pending and how many days you have left to use from your Profile's Time tab and via your Time section in the lefthand navigation.

You can also view any carryover, one off allowance adjustments or adjustments due to starting part way the year, or part time working weeks and any multiple policies that may be assigned.

  • Click on 'Your Profile' and then 'Time'

    It will show you an overview of your allowance, your upcoming leave as well as any pending or historical leave. You can also clearly see which leave policy applies to you.

  • You will be able to see on the right hand side how many days you've had approved, how many days are pending, and how many remaining days of holiday you have.

  • In the 'Total Allowance' section you can click on 'see details', this will give you a detailed breakdown of how your personal allowance is made up including any adjustments made to your allowance such as starting part way through the year, or any manual adjustments made by your company such as TOIL days for example. And you'll be able to see multiple policies here if you have moved to another country with different holiday rules for example.

Upcoming holiday: any holiday you have for the rest of the year will show in the Time Off card under ‘Upcoming Time Off’.

Past holiday: holiday you have already booked and taken will appear under "past events in this period" below your upcoming time off section.

Note: If your company counts national holidays as part of your allowance, remember to include those when checking your total is correct


Think your holiday allowance may be incorrect?

  • Did you start at your company or are leaving mid way through the year? Our article on how pro-rated leave is calculated might help!

  • Do you work part time? Check that your working week is set according to your working days by going to your employment tab of your profile and scrolling down to your working week.


To view time off for a previous leave year

Use the arrows at the top of the time tab of your profile to toggle between leave years. You can view your previous holiday year, allowance and holiday taken. You can also view your upcoming leave year and any holiday already booked.
