01Easy to use
One guided plan for employees, managers, and HR.
People can plan for themselves or for another employee. The guided path turns complex inputs into an understandable, week-by-week view of time away, pay, and job protection.
- Self-service planning reduces the need to begin with a manual HR conversation
- Seven scenario-specific paths ask relevant questions in a consistent order
- Real-time edits make tradeoffs visible before a plan is finalized
