Why it matters
Leave that's fair, fast and always up to date
Leave types, balances and multi-level approvals that keep attendance and payroll in sync on their own. Employees see what they have left, managers approve in a click, and HR stops answering the same balance question every week.
Always the right balance
Entitled plus carried over and compensatory days, minus taken, pending and penalties, calculated live.
Approvals that move
Requests go to the right people in order, and nobody can approve their own leave.
Attendance stays in sync
Approved days show up as On Leave in attendance, so nobody is marked absent by mistake.

Yes. Create as many leave types as you need, each with its own eligibility, paid or unpaid status, notice period, consecutive-day rules, attachment requirement and allowed durations.
Automatically. Eligible employees get their quota, new joiners get theirs when they're added, and quotas update when someone's employment status changes. You can also adjust or import quotas.
No. A request that exceeds the available balance is blocked, and the employee sees exactly how many days they're short.
Up to five per leave type, using named people or roles such as the line manager. One rejection ends the request, and nobody can approve their own leave.
Yes. Approved full days are written to attendance as On Leave, and are reverted if the leave is deleted, so payroll never treats them as absences.
Yes. Employees can apply for leave, file compensatory requests and check their balances from the Nexa People mobile app.
