When an employee submits a leave request in HRSimplified, their assigned manager is notified and can either approve or reject the request. There are two convenient ways to review and manage these requests.

Steps to Approve or Reject a Leave Request: #

1. Receive the Email Notification #

• Once an employee submits a leave request, the assigned manager will receive an email notification informing them that the request is awaiting approval.

2. Log into the System #

• The manager will need to log into HRSimplified to access the leave request details and take action.

Important Notes: #

• Leave Notifications: If an employee’s leave request is approved or rejected, they will be automatically notified via email.
• Leave Balances: Make sure to check the employee’s leave balance to ensure they have sufficient leave days before approving the request.
• Multiple Access Points: Managers have the flexibility to approve leave requests from both the dashboard and the Leave Management menu, making it convenient no matter where they are in the system.
