Managing the leave allowance for a worker.
To create a worker’s leave entitlement, please follow the below steps:
-
In the superhub, go to 'All workers'
-
Select the worker
-
Navigate to 'Leave'
- Select the correct leave type (Annual Leave/Study Leave/TOIL)
-
To add an entitlement, select '+ Entitlement' for the relevant leave type
- Complete the required fields and select 'Create'
- Enter the total entitlement amount for the period (in days or PAs*)
- Select 'Create'
🚀*
Leave is now displayed in hours as well as days where appropriate across Patchwork:
- Deduction calculations have been updated such that the system:
- Always deducts the hours of a shift, if present (if not it deducts 8 hours by default)
- Converts hours back to days and updates entitlements accordingly
- Example: if a worker takes leave on a day where they are scheduled for a 10 hour shift, they will be deducted 10 hours of leave = 1.25 days
To amend a worker’s leave entitlement, please follow the below steps:
-
Repeat steps 1-4 as above
- Find the leave entitlement period you wish to amend
- Select 'Edit'
- Previously filled out fields can all be amended
- Once you have finished, select 'Update'
💡There are restrictions on the ability to amend leave entitlements, i.e. you cannot shorten an entitlement period or amend a balance if this would impact an existing leave record
