Absence Management

The Absence Management system makes it easy to monitor, track, analyse and manage all types of absence from the office, home or remotely.

Employees can apply for leave without moving away from their desk. The system has the flexibility to allow staff to book their absences from the comfort of their home or elsewhere remotely.

More than just an absence management system, it helps plan annual leave. It allows all employees to view each other’s absences before booking time off, avoiding gaps in cover.

Cut the data any which way. Using Dakar’s library of absence reports, administrators can report on important trends like sickness abuse, high absence days and sickness at weekends. There is even a report to compute the Bradford Factor, which calculates levels of absenteeism. It is designed around the principal that short repeat absences have a greater operational impact than less frequent long-term sickness.
