Timetastic is becoming an increasingly popular holiday planner for businesses, mainly because of how simple it is to use. In a typical business set up, a staff member submits a form to the manager, the manager then signs the form, and then it must be sent to the individual dealing with the payroll. Following this, photocopies may need to be made so each individual has a copy of the form, then details may need to be added into a document, to determine how holiday is left.

For growing companies, this can become a nuisance, and though there are numerous software sites available, Timetastic is one of the most user-friendly. An individual simply clicks a date, decides on the type of leave, whether it’s paid holiday, sick leave, or unpaid, types a reason if they want to, and it then gets processed while a notification email is sent to the manager.

He or she then approves or declines the request, and it remains in the system. An email is also sent back to the staff member with the manager’s decision. In the top left hand corner there is the amount of days remaining. Timetastic makes it possible to view all employees’ holiday calendars, which can be grouped into different departments. With this it makes it simple to look at the busy and quiet months for holiday leave.

A mobile phone app is currently being developed to make it even easier to access the holiday calendar and book time off. For a simpler way to deal with holiday, Timetastic should at least be considered.
