Development of Scalable Employee Sick Leave Management System

The client's current sick leave management processes, relying on spreadsheets, email threads, and SharePoint, are inefficient, prone to errors, and lack real-time visibility. This leads to delays in approvals, miscommunications, and difficulty in tracking absences across a growing number of organizations and employees. The manual processes are no longer sustainable and are hindering organizational productivity and compliance.
