In an organization, employees receive approval to be excused from their regular work duties during a period known as leave. This may involve different types like vacation leave, sick leave, or personal leave, with terms and conditions, including compensation, varying based on company policies.

The Review: Leave page in the greytHR ESS portal allows you as a manager to review the leave requests of your team members. The page displays the team members’ leave requests in detail such as the number of days the employee has applied for leave, the reason for leave, and the applied status.
