About the time off supervisor

Discover the role of the time off supervisor

A time off supervisor is an individual within an organization who is responsible for managing and approving employee requests for time off, such as vacation days, sick leave, personal days, and other types of leave. This person may be a manager, a human resources representative, or another designated individual who has the permission to review and approve or deny time off requests.


 

What can a time off supervisor do?

  • See, edit, or create all the information related to the holidays, sick leaves, or any other time off requests of the employees managed.
  • See, edit or create a time off request for their employees.
    • If a time off supervisor creates a time off request for an employee, this request will be automatically approved and everyone (the employee, observers, Time-Off Approver, and the admin) will be notified.

💡 Having a time off supervisor can be an important part of managing employee time off and ensuring that the needs of both the organization and its employees are being met.
