How it works
Your personal planning layer above HR
Offdays helps you do the thinking before the formal leave request starts.
1
Plan privately
Try options, move dates around, and sketch the year without putting half-formed plans into a work system.
2
See your year clearly
Keep allowance, bank holidays, and real-life commitments in one view so the best windows stand out fast.
3
Request with confidence
Once the plan makes sense, take the dates into HR or your manager with a clearer view of what you are using and why.
Customer love
Less stress. More control.
People use Offdays to stop second-guessing leave plans and feel clearer before they ask for time off.
"I've spent years looking for a tool that does exactly what Offdays does. For the first time, I can plan my annual leave privately, see my whole year at a glance, and get my leave requests in before everyone else. It's simple, does one job really well, and has become part of my planning routine."
"I used to print out a paper calendar and get the highlighters out every year to work out when to take time off. The problem was that as soon as plans changed, I'd have to start all over again. Now I use Offdays to manage everything digitally. It's much more flexible, easier to update, and helps me make better use of my annual leave."
