Simple and compliant time and absence management

Managing time is about more than hours worked. Sympa’s Time Off tools help organisations track working time, handle absences and vacations, as well as support employee wellbeing.

 

  • Simple time registration: Employees record hours worked and breaks taken in a clear, easy-to-use view.
  • Absences and leave management: Manage short- and long-term absences, including illness, parental leave and other leave types.
  • Vacation management: Handle all types of vacation so employees can rest and recuperate as needed.
  • Compliance support: Meet EU Working Time Directive requirements, including separation of working time and breaks.

Common time challenges, handled in one system

Managing employee time needs to work for both employees and HR. Sympa supports accurate tracking, clarity and follow-up.

"I’ll say this: we cannot live without our HR system. It’s the foundation for all other development. Having an agile and easily adaptable HR solution, that can work across multiple countries and be flexible enough to reflect new ways of working, has been essential."

"Our industry sees a large number of business transfers and consequently a high staff turnover. This means that our managers spend a lot of their time on drafting, signing and sending out contracts and documents. This is why we needed a flexible HR system that fits our business model."
