Connecteam's time off feature allows you to manage all paid and unpaid time off without manual calculations. This feature is transparent to both managers and employees. As part of an all-in-one solution, the time off feature integrates with the Job Schedule, enabling managers and employees to add and view approved time off directly from the schedule. For managers, it ensures smooth scheduling by preventing managers from scheduling employees on their days off. For employees, it lets them know exactly when their colleagues will be off, helping them plan and even determine the best times to request their own time off. In this article, we will explain how to view time off on the job schedule.
