Question

How is an employee’s time off balance impacted by termination?

Answer

When an employee is terminated, their time off balance will be re-adjusted so that the end date will be the cut-off for their time off balance.

If an employee's leave request is ‌after ‌their input termination date, Employment Hero will adjust their leave balances. The amount of hours or days that were previously approved on the termination date and beyond will be reinstated to the employee’s time off balance.

However, the termination date will not be returned as time off. 

Example: 

An employee's termination date is 1 November 2024, but the employee had previously approved time off from 1-8 November 2024. 2-8 November will be returned to the employee as time off, but not 1 November 2024, which is forfeited.
