Leave Policy · section 3.2
Payslip · Sep 2026

Each person's own record, manager and team, kept up to date by HR.
The employee register: add, edit, import by CSV, photos, and a full history of every change.
Balances, manager then HR approval, comp-off, holidays, medical certificates and email reminders.
Check in and out on the server's clock, corrections with approval, and the monthly sheet for payroll.

Employee Handbook · Separation, p. 14
Ask
The same questions reach HR every week. Ask answers them at any hour, using only your organisation's policies, and shows where the answer came from. If the policies do not cover it, it says so and offers a ticket to HR.

Leave request
Balance after: 3 casual leaves
Leave
Employees see their balance and apply from a calendar. The manager approves, then HR, and everyone involved gets an email at each step. Anything left waiting gets a reminder the next morning.

September attendance
24 of 25 days
1 day casual leave · hours this week
Attendance
Staff check in and out on a phone or laptop, and the time comes from the server, not the device. Each day's status is worked out from punches, approved leave and holidays, so fixing one input fixes the day.

Payroll run · Sep 2026
Checked with your CA before salaries are paid.
Payroll
Salary structures, the monthly run with PF, ESI, professional tax and TDS under the new regime, and loss of pay straight from attendance and leave. HR reviews and approves; payslips go out by email.

Ticket #1042 · Payroll
My payslip shows a day of loss of pay, but my leave was approved.
Thanks, Rahul. It was approved after the cut-off; we have corrected it for October.
Resolved · can be reopened for 14 days
Help desk
When something needs a person, the employee raises a ticket and follows it. HR replies and moves it from open to in progress to resolved; the employee can reopen it within 14 days.
