The Leave of Absence Software automatically identifies a company’s obligations and risks related to key employment clauses such as sick pay, leave of absence, notice periods, post termination requirements, equity and vesting schedules.

Integrated with data extraction tools such as Kira or Luminance, the Leave of Absence Software streamlines the review of high volumes of employment contracts. The tool evaluates the extracted information against an integrated checklist to assess key employment terms such as sick pay, leave of absence, notice periods, post termination requirements, equity and vesting schedules.

An underlying risk scoring module segments these contracts into high, medium and low risk categories to help inform ongoing strategy discussions and resource allocation. The tool can also be used to assess contracts on an individual basis to address queries from employees who are personally impacted by COVID-19 related issues without delay.

As a result, the Leave of Absence Software determines the employment related risks and consequences a company bears as a direct result of the COVID-19 pandemic and generates a full report outlining individual employee risk scores, identified key terms and potential adverse consequences. The tool can also be leveraged to auto-generate tailored draft notices and advice for employees. The open architecture of the tool allows it to be adjusted easily to include a company’s bespoke COVID-19 playbook. Its modular logic can easily be edited to accommodate multiple jurisdictions, changing requirements and updated checklists.

#### Background

Companies and their workforces are finding themselves in unprecedented circumstances due to the COVID-19 pandemic. Resulting government measures issued to combat the rapid spread of the virus have restricted trade and business which is in turn having a direct and significant impact on the general economy. It has therefore become a key focus for companies, whose people and business are severely impacted, to determine and prepare for the effects COVID-19 related issues have on its workforce and employment obligations. It is crucial for companies to be able to understand their legal standpoint and act accordingly without delay to plan for the future, assess workforce requirements and ensure affected employees receive the guidance they need. However, navigating through the high volume of employment contracts, affected jurisdictions and individually agreed terms is proving time consuming and difficult.
