There’s no time like the present to gift a little magic

The start of the year is often a chance for practice managers to think about annual leave allowances for the year ahead.

If you’re up to your ears in spreadsheets and pro-rata calculations, you might be feeling the pressure. Calculating annual leave correctly for dozens (and in some cases, hundreds) of employees is no picnic.

Just imagine having a resource that did it ALL for you. Simply add the details from your staff contracts, and pro rata and bank holidays are calculated like magic!

Holiday Manager does all that and more.

Want to delegate holiday authorisation? Use the Teams feature, and you can delegate annual leave and access to sickness records if you wish; this also streamlines the calendar, so staff only see absences related to their team.

Pro-rata working hours? Simply add the working pattern and holiday entitlement, and Holiday Manager will calculate the hours correctly, year after year, without you lifting a finger.

Bank holiday entitlement when it changes each year? Holiday Manager deals with this issue automatically too. We add in the bank holidays approved for each nation, and then we calculate both allowance and deductions for you. You don’t have to worry. Even if a new bank holiday is added at short notice, you still don’t need to do anything.

We have a blog that talks about how we manage bank holiday entitlement, and we know that lots of you worry about whether you’re handling it correctly. Rest assured, we’ve dealt with bank holiday entitlement fairly, so you don’t need to worry about whether your part-time staff are getting the same pro-rata paid leave as your full-timers.

Setting your team up in the HUB is a swift job, taking less than a minute or two per staff member. At PI Towers, we’re down to about 15 seconds!

Once your team members are set up in the HUB, you can add their contract information to Holiday Manager, and that’s it. We’ll do the rest for you.

Staff can request their leave online, check who’s away from the practice, and see how much leave they have left to book without ever having to knock on your door.

If all of this isn’t magical enough, incredibly Holiday Manager is another one of our amazing FREE resources.

If you don’t yet have a practice HUB account set up, you can request one here.

If your staff are already set up in the HUB, simply add them to Holiday Manager and away you go.

If you’d like a tour of Holiday Manager and the chance to ask any questions you have, we’re running a couple of webinars in the next few weeks, book your place here:
