How Workato & HiBob Automate Leave Management

By integrating HiBob with Workato, we have created an automated workflow that eliminates manual effort, ensuring seamless leave tracking and approvals. Here’s how it works

01

Seamless Leave Requests & Approvals

Employees submit leave requests via HiBob. Workato triggers an instant notification to the manager via Slack, Microsoft Teams, or Zoho Cliq. Managers can approve or reject the request with a single click, ensuring faster processing.

02

Real-Time Leave Balances & Payroll Sync

Workato syncs HiBob with payroll systems such as ADP, Workday, or Zoho Payroll. Employees can view their up-to-date leave balances without needing HR intervention. Any leave adjustments reflect instantly in payroll and workforce planning systems.

03

Smart Escalations to Avoid Delays

If a manager does not respond within a defined timeframe, Workato automatically escalates the request to the next authority. This ensures that critical leave requests do not go unanswered.

04

Cross-Platform Integration for Workforce Planning

Workato connects HiBob with Zoho Projects, Jira, or Asana, ensuring project teams are notified of an employee’s absence. Automated updates help reallocate tasks, preventing workflow disruptions.

05

HR Analytics & Reporting

Leave data is automatically fed into Zoho Analytics, Power BI, or Tableau, generating actionable insights. HR teams can track leave trends, forecast absenteeism, and make data-driven workforce decisions.
