Your time off balances, policies and requests are on My profile → Time off, after your company finishes onboarding. Employees and contractors assigned to a policy use this tab for their own requests.

Before you begin

The Time off tab appears when time off is enabled and you belong to a time off policy. Contractors assigned to a policy can also see this tab. Request actions are available while you are employed. After employment ends, your request history remains available on the tab, with the actions read-only.

Check your balance and policy

Under Time off balances, find the policy you want to use. Limited policies show time spent and the remaining balance; unlimited policies show time taken this year. Select the arrow beside a policy to review whether it is paid or unpaid and whether manager approval is required. The details also show accrual information, maximum balances, carryover and half-day availability when they apply to that policy. The Holiday calendar lists your upcoming company holidays. It shows “No upcoming holidays” when there are none to display.
