Does this sound familiar? Leave requests made on the fly, confusing Excel spreadsheets, and the constant uncertainty of who is available when. Manually managing leave and other absences not only costs valuable time but also leads to planning errors and frustration within the team. PlainStaff puts an end to this. Our intelligent leave management digitizes and automates the entire process – from request to approval.

Experience how easy it can be to maintain an overview. With our central team calendar, you can see at a glance who is in the office, who is working from home, or when the next training session is scheduled. Every employee has access to their personal leave account at any time and can submit requests with just a few clicks. The result: less administrative effort, more transparency, and happier employees. Switch now to an absence management system that has your company's back.

The digital leave request: Fast, simple, transparent

Forget paper slips and cumbersome emails. In PlainStaff, your employees submit leave or other absence requests in seconds directly in the system. Simply select the desired period in the calendar, specify the type of absence (e.g., vacation, illness, home office), and submit.

The responsible supervisor is notified immediately and can review the request directly. The highlight: The integrated team calendar immediately shows if there are any overlaps with colleagues. This creates a fair and transparent basis for decisions. After approval, everyone is informed, the leave account is automatically updated, and the entry in the calendar becomes visible to everyone. Modern leave management is that simple.

The Leave Account: Always everything in view

How many vacation days do I have left? When does my remaining leave expire? These questions are a thing of the past with PlainStaff. Every employee has access to their personal and up-to-date leave account at all times.

The system automatically calculates the leave entitlement – taking into account legal requirements, individual employment contracts, and the start date. Taken leave, remaining leave, and expiring days are clearly displayed. This not only creates trust and transparency for employees but also relieves your HR department of recurring inquiries.
