How to manage staff leave

A clear leave process for hospitality teams: request, approve, keep the roster honest, and avoid double-booking.

Updated 2026-10-05

A leave process that protects the roster

  1. Staff submit leave with dates and type — not a private chat message
  2. Managers approve or decline with the roster week in view
  3. Conflicts with published shifts are resolved before the week goes live
  4. Balances and history stay available for the next request

Common failure modes

  • Leave approved in email but never removed from the roster
  • No visibility of overlapping requests on the same role
  • Staff unsure whether a request was seen
