Frequently Asked Questions

An absence management system is designed to help you keep track of staff and employee absences, whether that’s through annual leave management, sickness and compassionate leave as well as lateness and unauthorised leave. It will not only help you create staff rotas that take planned absences into account, it will also help you identify patterns of lateness and track absences that would otherwise go unnoticed and could cost your business dearly in terms of lost revenue and damage to your brand’s reputation.

Effective employee absence management is crucial for businesses to maintain productivity, morale, and compliance with company policies. The system helps organisations save time and money by identifying areas of concern such as time theft or a pattern of sickness that is the cause of concern.

A good absence management system will help you manage leave requests, track sickness absence, and provide accurate records of employee and casual staff working hours.

Yes. Nextra’s absence management software will integrate with your Payroll and HR systems, working with more than 70 platforms and apps. If needed, it will also integrate with the workforce management systems you are currently working with, but as our software provides 100% of your workforce management solutions, we would advise it’s best to install Nextra as your only solution from the beginning.

As soon as we’ve installed the system, we’ll train you and any members of staff who'll be using the system on its use. We’ll spend a day onsite training your teams on how to use the system. We also have a comprehensive Help Hub which will hopefully answer most questions on how to use the software - if not, you can raise a ticket with our Helpdesk.

This depends on the complexity of the system which will be tailored to your needs. Generally, we will only need to spend a day onsite training different teams, but occasionally we will need additional time.

We have been providing workforce management solutions for companies of all sizes for nearly 25 years, processing more than 25,000 staff every day. Our workforce management software is the only one that covers 100% of your needs in one system. We have also designed it to be scalable so it will grow alongside your business; all the features are in place at the installation phase, which means additional features can instantly be switched on as and when you need them - you only pay for what you use so if you don’t need everything we offer, that’s fine!
