A new way to report an absence

A simpler call-off process, right from a text.

Employees text to report an absence and receive a link to a mobile-friendly form. Once completed and submitted, the report is sent to their supervisor and/or HR.

A clear, structured report helps keep employees, supervisors and HR on the same page.
