Dear Community,

 

unfortunately I am back from my holiday to discover a change I really cannot comprehend.

In order for people to have access to certain absence policies (like parental leave or unpaid leave and others) I now have to set up an accrual policy and assign it to the respective employees retroactively? 
I am really struggling to see why this is necessary and thus a needed change? Furthermore, when trying to assign such a policy in bulk I can only set up as starting date the 1st of January 2024 and not the hire date? But when I open each individual profile then I can set the hire date as the starting date (which would make the most sense, because all periods before 1st of January 2024 will be then changed/will disapper).

I hope I am not the only one struggling with this and I am happy to hear any solutions around it!

 

Thanks & Best

Rali 

Hi - the change to absences/policies is described in this product update: https://support.personio.de/hc/en-us/articles/6018676072733-Personio-Product-Updates#absence-policies

I believe existing Time Off types that didn’t previously have a policy associated with them had a basic policy created. As you say, these policies then needed to be applied to relevant employees (which, depending on the complexity of your setup/number of employees) can be done through the Employee List in bulk.

We didn’t encounter an issue with the starting date, so unfortunately I can’t help on that front. 

I agree that this is quite a big change for Time Off management, so a bit more lead-in from Personio on this one would have been helpful. It just seemed to happen!
