Abstract:

The invention provides a system for recording and reporting employee absences. It tracks and administers information needed to comply with the Family Medical Leave Act (FMLA), state and employer authorized leave along with employee attendance policies and vacation plans within the employer's system. In a preferred embodiment, the system is deployed through the Internet and interacts with Short Term Disability and Workers' Compensation vendors and tracks which employee absences should be classified as such. With all absence data integrated into one system, the invention easily creates reports that have been difficult, if not impossible, to compile previously.
