Every staff member can request their own time off from My Info. Directors and managers decide on requests and see who is out on the PTO tab under Staff.
Requesting Time Off
- 1Click My Info in the left sidebar and open My PTO. Directors and managers can also use the PTO tab under Staff.
- 2Click Request time off.
- 3Choose the type: Vacation, Sick Leave or Personal Day.
- 4Choose the start and end dates. Neztio fills in the hours for the workdays, and you can change them.
- 5Add a reason if you like.
- 6Click Submit request. Your directors and managers see it under Waiting for you, and get a phone notification if they use the Neztio teacher app.
- You cannot ask for dates you already have time off requested or approved for.
- You can cancel a request that is still waiting, or approved time off before it starts, from the same list.
- When your request is approved or denied, its status changes here, and you get a phone notification if you use the Neztio teacher app. The note your director added appears under the request.
Reviewing Requests (Managers)
- 1Go to Staff in the left sidebar and open the PTO tab.
- 2Waiting for you shows how many requests need a decision. Click Review requests to go to them.
- 3Each request shows its dates and hours, and the effect on the room it works in. A request whose dates are already over is marked Dates have passed.
- 4To explain your decision, click Add note and pick a reason or type your own. Then click Approve or Deny.
Leave Types
- Vacation: time off from your vacation balance.
- Sick Leave: time off from a separate sick balance.
- Personal Day: time off from a separate personal balance.
Approved time off also shows on the Schedule tab, on each day it covers.
Planning Time Off with Coverage in Mind
- Who's out shows each week: one row per person, approved time off striped and requests dashed. Use the arrows to move between weeks.
- Each request shows its staffing impact before you approve it: whether the room stays in ratio, runs at minimum coverage with no margin, or would be left short of the staff it needs.
