Absence and vacation capabilities within Sage People enables users to create highly configurable absence rules, which assign accrued vacation and leave limits that can be tailored to be country-specific and company-specific.

Sage People does not perform any transformation on absence types, such as breaking down maternity leave into company, statutory and unpaid components.
