If you approve a leave request and it still got escalated, it’s most likely that it has met the criteria of auto-escalate rules.
There are auto-escalation rules in Leave Pro that will escalate the requests to the upper management when the rules are met.
The auto-escalation rules are set to ensure that the workplace management is aware when employees are taking long leaves, so the company can better allocate its resources. If you are a workplace manager, you may ask the HR Staff of Leave Pro to verify or change the rules of auto-escalation.
