What's the difference between holidays and absences?

Plans: Time, Advanced, HR Starter, HR Professional and HR Enterprise.


Holidays and absences are different. In Sesame, holidays are the mandatory and paid rest periods that correspond to the employee for the time he/she has worked or for the duration of his/her contract. Absences, on the other hand, are leaves of absence that require the employee to be absent from work for various reasons, such as illness, marriage, or relocation, among others.
