How to request it

Home Office is requested like an absence, with its own type, Home Office:

  1. In My area, select Request absence.
  2. For the type, choose Home Office.
  3. Choose the days and confirm.

The request follows the same approval as holiday: the leaders of your teams decide, and you are notified of the decision.

Your company's rules

Your company may set two rules, and the form shows them before you submit:

  • Allowed weekdays. For example, Mondays and Fridays only. Other days are greyed out in the calendar and a request that includes them is not accepted.
  • Weekly limit. For example, up to 2 days. Approved and pending requests for that week count.

If the request breaks one of these rules, the message tells you which days to remove.

Changing your mind

While it is pending, you cancel the request yourself. Once approved, use Request cancellation and the approver decides.
