FAQ-ID：1034
Typically, the company benefits are paused for employees who are on leave without pay (LWOP). So how to process employees who are on leave without pay in WorkDo?
Employee tenure will be paused for those who are on leave without pay. And, for workplaces that have enabled Leave Pro, it will stop delving out leaves for them. So this is a necessary and important setting that the workplace HR staff must know!
If you have a leave type for leave without pay for your team to select, or the employee has formally filed a request for taking leave without pay, it is still strongly recommended that you set the employee status to suspend through the HR tool to accurately reflect this change.
Set LWOP Employee Status to Suspend
- Leave without Pay │ It is recommended that the employee sends a request for taking leave without pay for the workplace HR staff as a reference, then follow the steps below and set the employee status to suspend.
- Parental Leave | For employees who would like to apply for parental leave, we recommend that they use Leave or Leave Pro to apply for parental leave first, then have the HR Staff set their employee status to suspend.
If your role is HR Staff in the HR tool, you may use the web version of WorkDo and follow the steps below to set LWOP employees to suspend status.
