Keep Leave in Check
During Probation

The Probation Period feature makes onboarding stress-free by automatically applying leave restrictions
for new hires. It keeps things simple, clear, and easy to manage for everyone.

/01

Save time and effort

Managing probation periods manually takes time—time that could be better spent focusing on integrating new hires into your team. With Vacation Tracker, you can set up probation policies in just a few clicks. Once configured, our system automatically enforces leave restrictions, so there’s no need to track dates, send reminders, or manually approve or deny leave requests.

/02

Keep things fair and clear

Confusion about leave rules during probation can lead to frustration for both new hires and HR teams. Vacation Tracker ensures consistency by applying the same policies across the board. Every employee knows exactly what to expect, and your HR team doesn’t have to deal with misunderstandings or manual oversight. It’s a win-win for everyone.

/03

Make onboarding simple for everyone

Starting a new job is exciting but can also be stressful. The last thing new hires need is uncertainty about their leave options. With Vacation Tracker, you can provide a smooth, stress-free onboarding experience. Clear guidelines and automated enforcement mean your team can focus on what matters—helping new employees feel welcomed and supported from day one.
