Employee Management System

Late Management System
for Bangladeshi Companies

A leave management system manages the applications filed by employees for taking leave, routes it through the correct approval chain, keeps track of leave balances according to the entitlements set in Bangladesh Labour Act and deducts the approved leaves from payroll automatically. HRMS BD does this for companies in Bangladesh so that the HR does not manage leaves by whatsapp messages and all leave balance is correct on the day and at the time when an employee (or an auditor) asks for it.

Core Features

Everything you need to manage employee leave

From the very first leave application to the very last payroll deduction, HRMS BD keeps an all-in-one accurate leave record of every employee for every leave type as per Bangladesh Labour Act.

Digital Leave Application

Employees apply Leave from HRMS BD mobile app/web portal with leave type, date and reason. Zero paper forms, zero WhatsApp messages, zero email threads. Your application is submitted and it instantly goes straight to the approver you assigned.

Configurable Approval Workflow

Leave requests automatically route through the appropriate manager tier. According to how your company is set up, a leave application can require either a single approval or two in series. If the initial approver does not respond within the configured time, the system sends a reminder without HR following up with anyone.

Leave Types by Bangladesh Labour Act Built In

HRMS BD has the leave types which are stipulated by Bangladesh Labour Act 2006: Casual Leave : 10 days per year Sick Leave : 14 days per year Annual Leave : One-day leave for each 18 days worked (for permanent employees) Festival Holidays : 11 days Maternity Leave : 120 days These statutory minima are supplemented by the ability for employers to add their own types of leave.

Accurate Leave Balance Tracking

Each Approved Leave day decreases the employee balance in real time. Casual leave and sick leave do not carry forward to the following year, as mandated by the Labour Act itself. You are paid for the days you actually worked – up to a legal maximum of 40 days for an annual holiday. It is not a number from last month spreadsheet, HR always sees the current balance.

Payroll Deduction for Unpaid Leave

If an employee goes on Leave Without Pay, or exhausts a leave type, HRMS BD automatically flags the absence and passes the deduction amount to Payroll. Finance should not have a standalone adjustment entry. Ideally, the deduction is calculated at the correct per diem basis on the employees existing pay scale.

Leave Reports and Compliance Records

HR can pull leave utilisation reports by employee, department, or leave type at any time. Annual leave encashment records, sick leave certificate requirements, and the full leave history for each employee are stored in HRMS BD and available for a Department of Labour inspection on the same day it is requested.

Benefits of Using HRMS BD for Leave Management

HR Teams

Leave stops coming through WhatsApp or Call

Within majority of Bangladesh companies leave management is a combination of WhatsApp approvals, a shared Excel file someone manually updates and a payroll adjustment that gets done from memory at month end. The Excel will always be one version behind. WhatsApp approval chain that means managers approve leave and promptly forget about it, and neither has a record of the other. It is the end of the year, an employee asks HR how many days they have left in annual leave, only to find someone in HR diving through months of messages trying to piece it together. HRMS BD centralizes all applications, approvals, balances, and deductions in the same system, so that kind of archaeological recovery is just not necessary.

Employees

Employees always know their leave balance

The most common leave complaint HR gets in Bangladesh companies is employees disputing their remaining balance. They took leave three months ago, but it never got updated in the system. With HRMS BD, the balance updates the moment the leave is approved, and employees can check it from their phone before they apply. The conversation with HR shifts. Instead of “what is my balance,” HR gets the actual leave application.

There is direct access to their own data in case of employees using the mobile app “EasyKaj”. This itself cuts down a surprising number of mundane queries relating to HR.

Mobile Apps

Apply for Leave and Check Balances from Any Device

HRMS BD leave management runs fully in a browser on phones, tablets, and desktops. There is no separate app to install. Employees apply for leave, managers approve or return applications, and HR tracks balances from the same system on any device.

HR managers overseeing leave for staff across Dhaka, Chattogram, Sylhet, and other locations see the same live dashboard from their phone. An employee working from a factory floor in Gazipur or a field site in Narayanganj applies for leave from their phone in the same two steps as an office employee in Dhanmondi.

The mobile experience has the same set of features as that of the desktop system. Going behind a wider screen, nothing goes unnoticed.

What is a leave management system?

A leave management system is a kind of software that takes applications of employees for leave, puts them through approval from the manager, tracks the leave balance for every leave type (i.e. maternity, female-related leaves, sick leave, etc.), and automatically links the approved leave to payroll deduction. This is a connected system that fuses three separate processes often found together: annoying paperwork formalities to fill forms, back-and-forths on WhatsApp to approve things and manual Excel balances to track things.

The Bangladesh Labour Act 2006 mandates for three families of leave types for private sector employees: (a) 10 days casual leave per year (non-accumulative); (b) 14 days sick leave per year (medical certificate is required and non-accumulative) and (c) annual leave at a rate of one day per 18 days worked, up to a maximum of 40 days can be carried forward. Also, employees have the right to 11 paid festivals holidays in a year and 120 days of maternity leave which was amended in 2023.

No. Sick leave and casual leave cannot be carry forward as per Bangladesh Labour Law 2006. Unused casual leave lapses at the end of the calendar year and cannot be encashed. The only leave balance which carries over is annual leave which has a maximum of 40 days.

Yes. In HRMS BD when an employee is absent without pay or used then approved leave entitlement, the deduction amount is calculated on the basis of leave taken and directing through payroll module for the concerned month. HR does not require a distinct adjusting entry for Finance.

es. HRMS BD comes configured with statutory leave types, and enables HR to add any provision of the leaves offered by the company (paternity leave, study leave, compensatory leave, bereavement leave etc.) along with the accrual rules, approval chain and payroll handling for those leave types.
