10 reasons to manage staff leave online

2. It saves time and  money .. and hassle.  
Think about how much time is taken filling out forms, checking calendars, checking leave entitlements and allowances and sending emails round the office to get a piece of leave approved. It all adds up and time is money. Check the cost of using the service against the time that is really spent on this repetitive office task. If you do the numbers, there should be a saving.
