Request leave

Ask for vacation, sick leave or other time off, and follow your request until it's approved.

You ask for leave in EasyHours, and your manager or an admin approves it. Your company decides which kinds of leave you can choose.

Follow your request

Your request shows as Pending until someone decides. It then changes to Approved or Rejected, and you get a notification. If they wrote a note, you see it when you open the request.

Upcoming leave: a pending vacation for a friend's wedding, and an approved vacation.

A request waiting for a decision, and one that’s approved.

You can’t ask for a day that’s already covered by another pending or approved request, even for different hours.

Change your mind

While a request is pending, open it and cancel it (Cancel leave), then confirm. Once it’s approved, ask your admin to cancel it; the days then go back to your balance.
