Time off simple and easy.

You own the name, the colour, whether it needs approval, and how much colleagues see. LadderHub owns the category — so three countries with three different names still roll into one number.

• Four platform categories — vacation, sick, parental, other — behind your own names
• Approval per type: manager review, or granted automatically
• Sick leave never shows details — health data is treated as health data
• Types are archived, never deleted, once a policy has granted them

Every set of numbers is a version with an effective date. Next year's allowance can be entered today, and a balance worked out last year can still be explained by the numbers that were in force then.

• Leave the date alone to correct today's terms; move it forward to file the next set
• Backdating allowed — a policy mis-entered in March is fixable as of March
• Assignments are dated too — joining, moving, and leaving a policy all have a day
• Every change lands in the audit log with who made it and when
