Simplify Public Holiday Management with WhosOff

Managing public and bank holidays can be complex, especially when coordinating across various departments and regions. WhosOff streamlines this process by allowing administrators to import national public holidays directly into the system.

These dates are marked as 'Free Days' in the calendar, ensuring that when employees book time off encompassing a public holiday, the system automatically adjusts their leave allowance accordingly .
