Frequently asked questions

Can approved leave requests be cancelled in Outstaffer?

Yes. Approved leave requests can be cancelled at any time. When a cancellation is made, the deducted leave credits are immediately restored to the employee's available balance, keeping leave records accurate.

How does Outstaffer handle leave requests when an employee doesn't have enough paid leave balance?

If a leave request exceeds the available paid balance, the system automatically allocates the available days as paid leave and the remaining days as unpaid leave — all within a single request. Employees don't need to submit separate requests.

How does Outstaffer handle leave management for overseas employees?

Leave requests, balances, approvals, and cancellations are all managed within the platform. Country-specific public holidays are flagged automatically during the request process, and managers have full visibility of team leave through an interactive calendar.
