Overview

Use carer's leave to record extended unpaid leave for employees who need to provide full-time care and attention.

The absence setup enforces the entitlement conditions defined for Ireland, including maximum duration, minimum duration, and the minimum gap required between periods of leave.

A few things to remember:

• Carer's leave is unpaid.
• The entitlement configuration should enforce the maximum and minimum duration limits and the minimum gap between periods of leave.
• Use the Notice Received legislative field to record whether notice has been received for the leave period.
• Users receive a message when they attempt to record a Carer's leave absence that exceeds the maximum allowed duration.
• Validate the absence type, absence plan, and entitlement rules together to make sure the leave behaves correctly at entry time.
