Introducing Tenure/Seniority-Based Rules Within the New Leave Engine
What's New ✨
The new leave engine now supports the implementation of tenure-based rules within leave policies. This means your business can effortlessly tailor leave policies based on the length of an team member's service, ensuring a more personalised and fair approach to time-off allowances.
Why?
Why?
- Many businesses all across the world tailor leave benefits to acknowledge the dedication of their team members within the organisation, and to retain and motivate their staff.
- Tenure-based rules have been one of the top 3 feature requests for leave accrual customisation within Deputy!
- Previously, you may have had to set up multiple different policies for managing tenure-based policies, which came with its own complexities: moving balances over from old tenured leave policy to the new one for an employee who would be eligible for a tenure-based company leave rule, clearing out balances from the old policy etc.
- This can now be seamlessly managed within 1 leave policy itself, saving you time and allowing for a more streamlined policy management experience.
How does this work in the product?
- A tenure-based rule allows different amounts of leave to be accrued depending on how long the team member has been with the organisation.
- For a tenure-based leave policy to function, businesses will need to have their team member's Hire date entered accurately in their employee profile.
- The leave policy will then automatically reference the hire date from the employee profile and perform accruals based on the length of their tenure within the business.
- Tenure-based rules are available for all the accrual methods present in the leave policy builder.
Rollout
- Now available to every business using the new leave engine experience on Deputy!
