Additional leave days

Written by Christophe Querton

This guide explains how to activate and configure the additional leave days service in your cafeteria plan, and how the requests and their handling work.


⚙️ Step 1: Activate the service

Before your employees can purchase additional leave days, you must activate the service from your employer interface.

1️⃣ Go to Budgets → click on the relevant budget

2️⃣ Click on Action → Modify the budget.

3️⃣ Activate the service and define the maximum number of days that the employees of this plan can purchase. This maximum can be set to a specific number or left unlimited.

💡 The maximum is configured per plan: different plans can have different limits.

Once activated, the service appears in the Services tab of your employees' interface.


⚙️ Step 2: Choose the approval mode

The approval mode applies to all your employees. You can configure it in Settings → Budget settings → Approval mode for additional leave days.

Two modes are available:

Automatic approval

Requests are approved automatically as soon as they are submitted, as long as the employee has not reached their plan's maximum. No action is required on your part.

Manual approval

Requests are sent to your validation queue. You must approve or reject them, like any other employee request. This setting can be modified at any time.


⚙️ Step 3: Manage employee requests

Once the service is activated, your employees can submit a request from their interface:

1️⃣ The employee goes to the Services tab of their RewardFlex platform.

2️⃣ They click on Additional leave days, which opens a general information page about the service.n

3️⃣ From this page, they initiate their request. A window opens in which they can:

  • Enter the number of days they wish to purchase.

  • Consult the cost per day calculated according to their profile (blue-collar or white-collar worker).

  • View the total cost of their request in real time.

4️⃣ Depending on the configured approval mode:

  • In automatic approval: the request is validated immediately, without action on your part.

  • In manual approval: the request appears in your validation queue. You must approve or reject it before any deduction.

5️⃣ Once approved, the corresponding amount is deducted from the employee's cafeteria budget.


💰 Integration into payroll exports

The additional leave days purchased appear in the payroll export so that they can be added to the employee's leave counter.

👉 Forward this export to your social secretariat so that it updates the counter.
