Challenge
It is crucial for restaurants to have an efficient way for employees to request leave. Currently it is common for errors to occur such as requests being sent to wrong or outdated emails, requests being lost, or going unanswered. These issues can often make it challenging for employees to send in leave requests and know where they stand.
A digital solution allows smart restaurants to minimize these challenges and makes it easier and more efficient to file leave requests using digital forms.
Solution
SimplyCast offers the Smart Restaurant Employee Leave Requests use case. This is a dynamic solution which brings restaurants many opportunities to improve how leave requests are managed. This includes enabling automated sorting to send requests to the right staff automatically and allows managers and owners to automatically send follow-up messages using multiple channels.
Restaurants greatly benefit from a solution that ensures that leave requests are received properly and handled efficiently while avoiding manual workload and errors.
Steps to Success
- This process begins with a form where employees can identify themselves and submit their leave requests.
- An employee requiring time off will simply fill in the forms with all of the required information.
- After submitting the form, the system uses automation to sort where the leave should go for review based on the employee's role. If a manager is on leave, fallbacks can be put in place to ensure the request is still managed.
- Once managers receive leave request submissions, they are able to send a follow up message directly to the submitter. This message serves to notify them of the response to their requests quickly.
Best Outcome
- Allows for a smoother leave request process.
- Ensures accurate delivery of leave requests to proper management.
- Enables the ability to tailor the type of leave request.
- Reduces time spent managing leave requests.
