Leave Management
Prevent coverage gaps and stay ahead of each province's leave entitlements with mobile-first tracking of vacation, sick and statutory leave for shift-based Canadian teams.
Leave management built for hourly, shift-based teams
Canadian leave rules vary across 10 provinces and 3 territories, with different vacation minimums, statutory sick pay, and personal leave entitlements. Spreadsheets can't keep up. Tanda lets staff request leave from their phone, gives managers a clear calendar view of who's off when, and applies the right accrual rules to every balance so nothing is missed at payroll.
Mobile-first for shift work
Shift staff don't sit at desks, so leave requests happen from a phone in a few taps. Employees view their available balance, submit a request for a full day or partial hours, and see status updates without stepping away from their work.
Keep everyone on the same page
When it comes to time off, everyone needs to be on the same page to avoid missed shifts. Approve, decline, and view upcoming leave on a real-time calendar so you know exactly where and when people are unavailable, preventing miscommunication and understaffed situations.
Leave policies tailored to your business
Set up the leave types Canadian employers actually use (vacation, sick, bereavement, parental, personal emergency, jury duty) and configure accrual rates by team, role, and province. Adjust as new provincial entitlements come in without rebuilding your policies from scratch.
Self-service that cuts admin work
Employees can set unavailability, check projected balances on future dates, and see available versus current hours, all from their phone. Better information in staff hands means fewer back-and-forth questions for HR.

Frequently asked questions
Tanda tracks vacation pay accrual automatically based on each employee's province of employment and length of service. Vacation pay minimums vary across Canada: most provinces require a minimum of 4% of gross wages for employees with less than five years of service, rising to 6% after that threshold, though some provinces set higher minimums or use different calculation methods.
For hourly and shift-based staff, vacation pay is particularly important to get right because it is calculated as a percentage of all earnings, including overtime, stat holiday pay, and any other insurable earnings, not just base hourly wages. Tanda captures all earnings types during the pay run and applies the correct accrual rate automatically.
Accrued vacation balances are visible to managers and to employees in the self-service app, reducing the volume of queries HR teams handle around leave balances.
