Allow all employees to request lieu time

You can allow all employees to request lieu time so they can manage their own Time Worked in Lieu (TWIL) directly in Self Service.

Written by Relu

Allowing employees to request lieu time gives them more control over recording and using their extra worked hours, rather than managers handling it manually.

Use cases

If you allow employees to request lieu time this can be useful when:

  • Employees regularly work more hours than their contracted schedule and build up lieu time.

  • You want them to submit their own lieu requests rather than a manager entering it for them.

  • You want the hours they’ve worked extra to be recorded in their TWIL balance so they can use them later instead of normal holiday.

Once the permission is enabled, employees can add their own lieu time, and after approval the hours are stored in their balance and can be used when booking leave.
