View Company Holidays

Where can I view my company holidays?

Purpose: To teach you how to view your company holidays on the calendar. 


Who's Out widget

Once set up, company holidays appear in the Who's Out widget. In the smaller view, you'll see employees who are out today due to time off or a company holiday. In the extended view, you'll see who is out today and who will be out in the upcoming days.

You can determine if a filtered holiday (one that only applies to some employees) will be visible to all employees through Holiday settings.

Who's Out calendar

If you open the Who's Out calendar from the Celebrations widget, Company Holidays widget, or the Who's Out widget, you'll see all company holidays with the holiday icon next to it. You'll also see when the holiday is celebrated and the number of employees assigned to the holiday. Clicking Details will populate a full list. On the calendar itself, the holiday name will be colored if you are assigned the holiday. If you are not assigned the holiday, it will be grayed out, but you will still be able to see who is assigned to that holiday if your admin has granted you that permission.

iCal feed

With the iCal feature activated, company holidays feed into an outside calendar program.

Mobile app

Company holidays appear in the Calendar section of the mobile app.

Time off requests

If an employee requests time off over a company holiday that applies to them,* the holiday will automatically default to zero hours/days on the request. The employee can manually change the time if needed.

*You can filter company holidays to include only specific groups of employees. If an employee does not have the applicable holiday, the request will show the default amount of hours, or one day, for that date.

Time Tracking

If you use BambooHR Time Tracking, you can set up your holidays in Holidays settings, and they will show in each employee's timesheet.
