LeaveWizard provides the ability for an administrator to define ‘company events’ so that employees are aware of these events and can make informed decisions about their holiday requests. This would include days such as bank holidays or Christmas shut down periods.

By default, any company event will not be included in the calculation of an employee’s remaining allowance. Therefore provided that someone with an administrator status has recorded the bank holiday in question as a company event, it will not be deducted from your holiday allowance.

If the date(s) concerned falls within the current month you will be able to see on the ‘This Month’ calendar feature whether the bank holiday has been defined as a company event. Alternatively you can check the Leave Charts which provide you with the option of checking dates that are further in the future.
