For companies on Google Workspace
Employee and contractor leave in one calendar
Offdays tracks and approves leave, confirms sick days on its own and writes every absence to your shared Google Calendar. Employees and contractors keep their own rules, the team sees one overview.

Why Offdays?
Most leave tools only know the employee on payroll. Offdays is built for the mixed teams that actually run the work.
Employees and contractors
Each person has a type. Employees carry unused days into next year, contractors do not, and sick day limits are set separately for each.
Shared company calendar
Approved absence lands in your shared absence calendar and in the person's own calendar, with the day count and any half-day marked in the title.
Approvals that survive changes
Requests reach the assigned supervisor by email. Changing or cancelling already approved leave goes back for approval, and the calendar is rewritten to match.
Sick days, handled differently
Reported for today or tomorrow, approved automatically, and drawn from their own limit. Nobody waits on a supervisor while they are ill.
One team, two sets of rules
A person on payroll and a person on an invoice do not need the same thing. Offdays keeps both, applies the right rules to each, and still shows you one calendar.
Employee
Entitlement to spend- An annual entitlement that accrues through the year
- Unused days carry over into the following year
- Own sick day limit, set for employees
- Payroll report lists them as employees
Contractor
Availability, not entitlement- Reports when they are unavailable rather than spending an entitlement
- No carry-over, the balance does not roll into next year
- Own sick day limit, set separately from employees
- Payroll report lists them separately
Both end up in the same place. Whatever the type, approved absence appears in the shared company calendar, so planning a delivery date never depends on remembering who is on holiday and who simply is not around. Supervisors see their own team, administrators see the whole company.
How it works
Vacation goes through approval. A sick day does not. Both end up in the calendar.
2
Supervisor approves
The request reaches the assigned supervisor by email, who approves or rejects it. A sick day skips this step entirely and confirms itself.
3
Calendar updates itself
The absence is written to the shared company calendar and to the person's own. Later changes and cancellations rewrite the event, so the calendar never goes stale.
Everything leave tracking needs
Every plan includes every feature. No locked modules, no add-ons.
Import from Google Workspace
Administrators find colleagues in the Google Workspace directory and add them to Offdays. Nobody is created by hand.
Team view for supervisors
Supervisors see their team and pending requests as soon as they sign in, administrators see the whole company.
Holidays by each person's country
Public holidays are deducted based on the country set for each person. Made for international teams.
Half-days
A half-day at the start or end of an absence counts as 0.5 days and is marked morning or afternoon in the calendar.
Pro-rating and carry-over
People who join mid-year get a pro-rated entitlement. Employees' unused days carry over into the next year.
Year-end split
Leave that crosses December 31st is split so the days come out of the right year.
Email notifications
Supervisors get an email for new requests, sick days and cancellation requests; requesters for every status change.
Excel report for payroll
An annual report with a sheet for each month, with people split into employees and contractors.

People data deserves care
Absences are personal data. Offdays is built so that only the people who need them can see them.
How we protect data
-
Data in the European Union
The application and its database run on Google Cloud in the europe-west1 region in Belgium.
-
No passwords
Sign-in uses company Google accounts only. Offdays stores no passwords.
-
Separate data per company
Each company gets its own isolated environment based on its domain.
-
Role-based access
Employees manage their own requests, supervisors approve their team, administrators configure the company.
Who Offdays is for
A good fit if
- your company runs on Google Workspace,
- your team mixes employees and contractors,
- you want leave in Google Calendar, not in a spreadsheet,
- you are anywhere from a few people to a few hundred.
Not a fit if
- you use Microsoft 365 or personal Gmail accounts,
- you need time tracking or attendance records.
Frequently asked questions
Everything you need to know about Offdays.
Yes, that is what it is built for. Every person is marked as an employee or a contractor, and the rules follow the type. Employees accrue an annual entitlement and carry unused days into the next year; contractors report when they are unavailable and their balance does not roll over. Sick day limits are configured separately for each type. Both appear together in the shared calendar, and the payroll report keeps them in separate groups.
A sick day is deliberately a different process from vacation. You report it for today or tomorrow, whichever are the next open working days, and it is approved automatically, because somebody who is ill should not be waiting on their supervisor. It draws from its own limit and never touches the vacation entitlement. It cannot be booked in advance or backdated, and it shows up in the shared calendar right away so the team knows.
No. Sign in with your company Google Workspace account. Offdays recognises your company by its domain, creates a separate environment for it and signs you in. An administrator then finds colleagues in the Google Workspace directory and adds them to Offdays without creating accounts by hand.
No. Offdays is built directly on Google Workspace: you sign in with your company Google account and absences are written to Google Calendar. Microsoft 365 and personal Gmail accounts are not supported yet.
You create a shared calendar for absences and set it in Offdays. Approved leave is then written there through a Google service account, so entries appear on their own without anyone retyping them, and the same absence also lands in the person's own calendar. The event title carries the name and the number of days, with half-days marked as morning or afternoon. If a request is later changed or cancelled, the event is updated or removed to match.
A submitted leave request goes to the assigned supervisor automatically. They get an email and approve or reject it. Administrators can approve too and see every request in the company. Changing or cancelling already approved leave goes back for approval.
Offdays automatically skips weekends and public holidays based on the country set for each person, for example the Czech Republic, Slovakia, Germany or the UK. Those days never count against leave, so only real working days are deducted. That makes international teams easy to manage.
Offdays splits it into two separate requests at December 31st automatically, so the days are deducted from the right entitlement in each calendar year.
Yes. You can choose a half-day for the first day, the last day or both. Offdays recalculates the length of the absence and deducts 0.5 days for each half-day.
You can delete a pending request yourself. For approved leave, click "Request cancellation" in your dashboard and your supervisor is notified. Once they approve, the days return to your entitlement and the event disappears from Google Calendar.
