Absence Management

The Absence Management Module processes CSU absences such as sick days, v​acation time, personal holidays, bereavement, and other leaves. Employees enter their own absences through self-service. Multi-institution security will ensure users only have access to data at their campus. This module will be the system of record for tracking all le​​ave types at the CSU which are not required to be tracked on either the job record or through an extended leave process.

• Employee and manager self-service pages are upgraded and will have a new look and feel
• Pre-planned absences will be entered as “requests” (e.g. vacation, personal holiday, etc.) and will go through workflow and approved on an on-going basis
• Non-pre-planned absences (e.g. sick) will be entered when the time is used and will go through workflow and approved on an on-going basis
• Absence requests can be entered up to 12 months in advance and for 12 prior months
• Employees and approvers can cancel any absence requests that have not been used/finalized
• The new absence forecasting feature will validate employee balances on all requested/reported absences and will consider future accruals, as appropriate
• No Leave Taken will be maintained on a new page and will be separate from absence pages
• The entry and usage of compensatory (CTO), Alternate/Additional Day off (ADO), and holiday will entered, approved, and processed in Time & Labor instead of Absence Management
• Supervisors and managers will be designated as time and attendance approvers
• Approver access will be automatically granted to supervisors and managers who have employees reporting to them
