How to define workweek for employees based on countries?

Prior to answering this question we need to understand why do we need to define workweek in IceHrm?

Workweek defines the days that your employees are working. When an employee is applying for a leave, the workweek is taken into consideration. For example, if your company works only from Monday to Friday and if an employee applied for leave for two continuous weeks including weekends, Saturdays and Sundays will NOT be counted for leave application.

In some cases, companies need to keep different workweeks for different countries. Let’s take one example and see how we can do it using the IceHrm software.

Assume a scenario that you want to define a Sunday as a working day and Friday as a holiday for your employees based in Dubai.

1. Log in to your organization’s admin account

Under the leave management module in IceHrm, you can find all the elements required to manage the leave application process of your company,

Including:

· Leave periods

· Leave types

· Workweek

· Holidays

· Leave rules

2. Click into workweek

3. In default we have set the workweek as-Monday to Friday are working days and Saturday and Sunday are nonworking days in IceHrm software. Now you want to make Sunday as a working day and Friday as a holiday for employees works in Dubai.
