Holidays: This holiday season the Christmas Day and New Year's Day statutory holidays fall on a weekend. We encourage everyone to review the stat holidays as listed in Collage and adjust as needed to reflect the needs and rules for your team. Learn more about adding Company Holidays here.

**TIP: Review the Time Off Requests report to ensure employees have not submitted requests before a holiday has been added to the platform. Previously submitted requests will NOT be automatically adjusted.

Time off balances include ONLY the days relevant for the current time off policy year. That means no negative available balances due to days booked next policy year.
​
​**TIP: Forecast the number of days an employee will have remaining at the end of the year by pulling a Time Off Balances report and selecting Dec 31 2022 as the effective date.

Late fall is a great time to send a quick note to your team reminding them of the rules of their time off policy as well as to use any remaining vacation or lieu days for the year. Use Collage to send out an announcement to your entire team, or just a select group.

**TIP: As an Admin, you can also view available days for all employees on the Time Off Summary page and using the drop down menu choose the applicable time off type.

No more lost days! Review the carryover rules for each type of time off, within each policy, to ensure the right type of carryover takes place at your year end. Navigate to your policy, then Time Off Rules to view and update the rules. Learn more about time off policies here.

While you're there, take a look at your anniversary bonus rules defined within each time off type. They’ll apply to employees automatically at the anniversary you've defined.

We've updated our Holidays section to include statutory holidays for 2023. Take a moment to review by navigating to Holidays and then selecting 2023 from the drop down menu. This automatically applies Canadian statutory holidays to eligible employees. Note that Provincial holidays are based on the province of work for your employees.

**TIP: Custom Holidays can be added here too. Think additional company-wide, US, or international holidays observed by all or some of your team based on their location.

End of year often means it's time for performance reviews. Use Collage to set up and manage your Annual 360 Reviews and set Goals to help propel your people forward into 2023 with purpose.

It's good practice to take a moment and review the status of your team's benefits enrolments. If you've enabled benefits with Collage, you'll be able to review enrolments and ensure all eligible employees are enrolled in the right class of benefits. You can also enrol team members directly from this screen.
