How to create a new leave policy?

As per National and State Laws, both private and government organizations must offer mandatory paid leave to their employees. To set this up in the Keka HR Portal, you need to create a leave plan and then add specific leave types to it before assigning it to employees. Now, let's dive into how you can create a new Leave plan.

Navigate to the Time Attend (1) and select Leave (2) and you will be directed to the Leave Plans (3) section. Then, click on +Add Leave Plan (4) and select Create from Scratch (5). You can also choose to create a leave plan from a template if you wish.

Add the Leave Plan Name (1) and Description if required. Select the Leave Calendar Year Start Month (2) and click on Save (3). You may upload a custom leave policy document if you wish for the employees to be able to download it from their portal.

Please note that Calendar year cannot be changed once the Leave plan is created.

The Leave Plan is created and now you can proceed with adding the leave type to the leave plan. To know more about how to add a leave type click here.
