Good Afternoon SkedX'ers!
Today I wanted to change things up from our usual style of posts to one about us! Over the weekend I managed to get sick and develop a fever, so this morning I thought why not write a post on how easy it is to call in a sick day with SkedX! We have all experienced the type of feeling I currently have (running hot, aching muscles, lots of mucus, and simply no energy) and sometimes it can be a challenge in itself to get on the phone and notify a manager of your illness.
With SkedX, requesting a sick day is very simple and can be done from any electronic device with an internet connection. To do so, simply log into your SkedX account and mouse over the purple time tab.
Click "Manage Vacations," from there you are taken to the manage vacations page.
Here you can submit a sick day/vacation request to your manager. To do so, simply enter the start and end date, the type, and the reason.
After you have entered all the required information, then click "Submit Vacation Request." After doing so your request will be sent to your manager for approval and can be found under pending vacations in the "Manage Vacations" page.
After approval/disapproval, that's it! Requesting sick days/vacations with SkedX is simple, quick, and effective. As in the case above, the employee was able to notify the manager of there illness and have there sick day approved without even directly speaking to the manager!
