Role-based absences
Sparkrock 365 includes the capability for you to administer Role-Based Absences (RBA). Role-based absence scenarios can occur in school boards. A school board employee can have multiple attendance plans based on their assignments and the employee can specify different absence types based on their role or job.
For example, consider a scenario where Jane Smith is both a teacher and a librarian. As a teacher, Jane Smith's employer can assign her an attendance plan that entitles her to take a specific number of absences per year, such as up to 10 sick days, and 5 bereavement days. As a librarian, Jane's employer can assign her a different attendance plan that entitles her to take up to 10 vacation days, 5 sick days, 3 personal days, and 3 bereavement days. When Jane requests an absence, she can choose the assignment, and then specify the appropriate cause of absence that is associated with the assignment.
The role-based absences functionality is required to perform Employment Data and Analysis System (EDAS) reporting. For more information about EDAS, see Employment Data & Analysis System (EDAS) reporting.
