Leave management software

What is leave management software?

Leave management software tracks employee leaves of absence under FMLA, the ADA, state paid family and medical leave programs and company policy. It works out eligibility, tracks continuous and intermittent leave, sends the required notices and keeps the case file in one place.

Software or an outsourced administrator?

Some products here are software your HR team runs itself. Others are services where the vendor's specialists administer each leave for you, with a portal for employees and a dashboard for HR. A few offer both, so decide who should make eligibility decisions before you compare.

What should I check before choosing one?

Check which state leave programs are covered and how rule changes reach you, whether intermittent leave is tracked in hours, whether ADA accommodations sit in the same system, and which HRIS and payroll systems it connects to.

How is leave management software priced?

Most vendors quote after a demo. Where a price is published it is usually per employee per month, sometimes with an implementation fee. Each listing below shows the published price or pricing model, with the date we checked it.
