Introduction
The objective of the ESS portal is that every employee should be able to mark their attendance, apply for leaves, check their salary details, as well as download their Pay slips directly using the portal. Additionally, the managers can directly approve their team members’ leaves, regularize their attendance and approve the on-duty requests of their employees using the portal.
The employees can also view various types of reports and check their leave balance using the ESS portal. They can view or update their personal details, employee details and other data such as their family information, date of joining, nominee information, emergency contacts, employment history, training details, etc. They can also view the general organizational information and policies in this portal.
Once an employee logs into their ESS Portal, they are greeted by the ‘Dashboard’. In this dashboard, employees can view the data related to attendance, in-out details, leave summary, salary details, upcoming birthdays and anniversaries, latest news, and much more.

Leave
In the Leave module, employees can apply for leaves, regularize their attendance and apply for on-duty. They can view the status of applied leaves, regularization requests and their on-duty requests, and can also view their annual attendance summary on a single page.
The manager can approve or reject their team members’ leaves, regularization requests and their on-duty requests from the ESS portal. While approving any request, the manager can also check the details and the supporting documents uploaded by the employees while applying that request. Managers can assign the shift to their members directly from their ESS portal.
The admin and HR have the rights to directly approve or reject the records of any pending request of any employee in the company. They can also view the attendance summary of all the employees either monthly and yearly.
