edays is an online, self-service web application and mobile app for managing, tracking and reporting employee holiday and absence.

edays is loved by organisations worldwide, ranging from large multi-nationals to SME's across every sector.

Unlike an Excel spreadsheet or paper-based systems, edays delivers value to managers and HR leaders by providing instant access to accurate employee absence records. Employees can also quickly access their holiday entitlement and request time off work with ease. Managers are able to book absences themselves or authorise absence requests at the click of a button through email notifications.

edays can be used to manage any type of absence within an organisation including sickness, overtime, time off in lieu and can support any custom absence types that an organisation might have. High-level reporting tools can be used to gain insight of absences across an organisation whether this is a general overview or looking at a specific employee’s absence trend. Compared to a manual absence management process, edays saves business costs and allows organisations to become more productive whilst reducing their unplanned absence levels.

Understand how, when, and why your people take absence and leave. With insightful data, edays gives you the visibility you need of your workforce – no matter their location. Through these insights, edays encourages progressive management that can drive employee loyalty whilst reducing sickness and absenteeism. In fact, edays customers have a 50% lower than national (UK) average sickness rate.

As a best-of-breed software, edays is highly configurable and offers a range of different customisable options to best suit your organisation and its needs. Whether that's the ability to offer holidays in a mix of hours and days, to have holiday calendar years that start at varying dates, or to offer different accrual entitlements based on a number of factors.

The system is designed with ease-of-use and flexibility in mind, and can grow as your organisation does. Templates allow admins to set certain rules for employees on a global, regional or working-pattern basis, to reduce admin and allow entitlements to be automatically calculated. This also helps you to act globally, as you can ensure you are compliant with any local absence and leave laws.

edays also allows you to complete completely customisable sickness journeys. In one centralised place, you can record sickness absences, issue medical forms (such as return-to-work forms), and report on absenteeism rates. Putting employee wellbeing at the centre of your organisation, edays allows you to more easily check in with those who are off sick, with automatic triggers, Bradford Factor indicators and integrated medical advice. You can even log sickness instances as ‘open-ended’ absences and set manager alerts if absence exceeds a specified duration.
