Easy Leave Setup
Use built-in templates for Annual, Medical, and Childcare leave — or customise your own in minutes.
Transparent Approvals
Employees apply, managers approve, and both leave and entitlement balances update instantly.
On the Go
Manage leave anytime on web or mobile, with instant push alerts for every request and approval.
Everything in leave management
Eighteen leave types come preset the day you sign up. Adjust any of them, or add your own.
Leave types, ready to go
Annual, Medical, Hospitalisation, Childcare, Maternity, Paternity, Compassionate, Exam, Unpaid, Off Pass, Work Trip, Brought Forward and more — preset and editable.
Two-tier approvals
A recommending officer, then an optional approving officer. Set the chain per employee. Change it and pending applications reassign themselves.
Balances that behave
Brought-forward carry-over with a cap you set. Medical and hospitalisation share one entitlement pool. Half-day AM or PM. Automatic annual refresh on your own cycle date.
Days counted properly
Every application is counted against that employee's own work week and shift hours. Non-working days and public holidays are skipped. Overlapping requests are caught, half-days included.
Rules per leave type
Decide whether a document is not required, optional, required, or required only before approval — an MC on medical leave, say. Same for remarks. Cancellations run their own approval chain.
Ten reports
Balance, taken, pending, calendar, expiring, trend, unpaid, medical, statutory and per-employee. Every balance change is audited, so you can always see who changed what.
Leave that knows the local rules
Most leave software is built somewhere else and localised afterwards. SMEasy was built for Singapore SMEs from the start, so the parts that usually cost you an afternoon are simply already right.
- Gazetted public holidays, maintained for you. We keep the official list current and push it to your account — 2026 dates are already loaded. Adjust them if your company observes something different.
- MOM leave types out of the box — maternity, paternity, childcare, compassionate and hospitalisation, with the medical and hospitalisation entitlements pooled the way they are meant to be.
- Unpaid leave reaches the payslip. It doesn't stop at the leave module — it appears as a payslip line, comes out of the CPF ordinary-wage base, and lands in IR8A gross salary. No re-keying at month end.
A 20-person shift business usually runs a payroll tool and a separate rostering tool, then retypes the hours between them every month. SMEasy is one system from the shift to the payslip.
No minimum. Cancel anytime.

Questions we get asked
How much does leave management cost?
S$5 per employee per month, and that includes payroll, attendance, duty roster and employee records as well - not just leave. There is no minimum headcount and no contract, so a four-person company pays twenty dollars a month.
Does it handle Singapore statutory leave?
Yes. Maternity, paternity, childcare, compassionate and hospitalisation leave are preset, medical and hospitalisation entitlements are pooled, and gazetted public holidays are pushed to your account and kept current.
Can employees carry unused annual leave forward?
Yes. Set a cap and the balance carries forward automatically when your leave year rolls over. Brought-forward days can be configured to expire before the next refresh so they do not accumulate indefinitely.
Do we need a document for medical leave?
Your choice, per leave type. An attachment can be not required, optional, required on application, or required only before the request can be approved - which is how most companies handle an MC.
Does leave affect payroll automatically?
Unpaid leave does. It becomes a payslip line, is excluded from the CPF ordinary-wage base and is reflected in IR8A gross salary, so nobody retypes it at month end.
Can staff apply from their phone?
Yes - on the web or in the SMEasy app on iOS and Android, with push notifications for every application, approval and rejection. Approvers can decide from their phone too.
