Absences module
In many businesses, leave runs on a paper or email request, a list of days left and the wall planner in the corridor. Tiveo brings that together and gets right what is often worked out wrongly.
“How many days do I have left?”
The request takes two clicks and shows your remaining days, who approves and who else is off.
“Who else would be away?”
Every pending request on one page, the team beside it and the leave left afterwards.
“Do the numbers add up at year end?”
Every figure in the leave account shows where it comes from.
Pick type and dates, in the browser or on the phone. Holidays and part-time are already taken off.
You decide once who approves. Before saying yes, they see who else is away.
Entitlement, carry-over and remaining days are set per person, pro rata when people join or leave.
Every calculation can be followed, from the request to year end.
Tiveo counts the working days with weekends, the holidays of the person’s region and their part-time pattern. Anything in the way shows before sending.
Entitlement, carry-over, special leave and extra days, including the cases people often get wrong.
You decide who approves whose leave: by length, absence type, department or person, in several steps if needed. For example, the department head approves up to five days and the division head joins from six.
Rows are people and columns are days, with public and school holidays, events and, with shift planning, the shifts.
Sick notes sit in the same calendar, but only managers and HR see the reason.
Tiveo comes with 12 templates, each with its own colour, abbreviation and rules: whether it counts against the entitlement, needs approval or needs proof. From the Team plan you add as many of your own as you like.
With time recording Leave, sick days and training count as worked; time off in lieu comes off the time account.
With shift planning The request shows what it means for the shifts. Once approved, they are cancelled and kept on record.
From the core Public holidays come from the place of work, approvers from the structure.
Leave gets requested from the sofa in the evening and approved between two meetings, in the same application and with nothing to install.
The rules Tiveo calculates by, and where to find them.
The statutory minimum leave is 24 working days for a six-day week, which is 20 days for a five-day week.
In Tiveo: Tiveo calculates entitlement in working days, for part-time too.
Anyone who joins or leaves during the year is entitled to one twelfth of the annual leave for every full month.
In Tiveo: Tiveo works out the pro rata share itself, and the full entitlement when someone leaves in the second half of the year.
Leave only expires if the employer has pointed out the impending expiry in good time and specifically (CJEU, 6 November 2018, C-684/16).
In Tiveo: Switch it on, and from Team Tiveo emails the reminder to everyone with their own account and records the sending. People who are only in the calendar get it from you.
If someone falls ill during their leave, the days of incapacity shown by a doctor’s certificate are not counted against the annual leave.
In Tiveo: Whoever enters the sickness ticks one box: Tiveo takes the days out of the leave, and they go back to the account.
In construction and industries with many short employment relationships, collective agreements may deviate further from the Act, for instance by letting leave accrue per day of employment.
In Tiveo: The accrual model counts per month or per day of employment and shows in the request how much has accrued by then.
If someone moves to part-time, leave already earned must not be reduced (CJEU, 22 April 2010, C-486/08).
In Tiveo: Tiveo calculates the entitlement per period of the working pattern.
Anyone unfit for work for more than six weeks within a year must be offered occupational reintegration management by the employer.
In Tiveo: The BEM list shows HR who reaches the threshold.
Leave management software is subject to co-determination.
In Tiveo: The template works agreement describes in twelve sections what Tiveo processes, who sees what and what the data is not used for.
As of 1 October 2026. These sentences summarise the legal position and are not legal advice. Collective agreements and works agreements may provide otherwise.
Free for up to five employees, above that priced by headcount. You can try every plan free for a month and cancel at the end of the billing period. Everyone you manage in Tiveo counts, with or without an account; people who have left, dormant records and future hires before their start date do not.
| Plan | Free | Team | Business | Company |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Employees | up to 5 | up to 15 | up to 50 | up to 100 |
| Price per month | €0 | €19 | €59 | €119 |

Day to day, not much. Leave management stresses entitlement, remaining leave and approval; an absence planner stresses the calendar, which also shows sick leave, working from home or business trips. Tiveo is both in one application.
No. You can add people and plan for them without anyone registering. They still count towards your plan, like every employee with or without an account.
By import: Tiveo reads people, teams, entitlements, remaining leave and existing entries from your Excel file or a CSV. Before anything is taken over, a test run shows line by line what would be created.
For every absence type you decide who sees the reason. For sick leave the default is: colleagues see “absent”, only the manager and HR see the reason. You also choose whom employees see in the team calendar at all: everyone, only their team or nobody. The software enforces this technically.
Yes, once the administrators switch it on, for the whole company or for single departments. Heads and deputies then enter absences for their people in the team calendar, as a request or approved straight away, and withdraw entries, though never for themselves. Switch on the email for it from Team, and everyone with an account hears about every entry.
The demo shows Tiveo with sample data, without signing up: requests, approvals, team calendar and leave accounts of a joinery with eight people.
