Find your favorite paparazzi shades to wear because when HR pros use Tilt to manage leaves of absence they get a ton of shine from their peeps. Using Tilt to guide your employees through even the most complicated LOAs is the simple, human way to boost the affection your workplace has toward HR.
A well-designed and empathetic leave of absence process is essential for fostering a positive relationship between an employee and their employer. It allows you to demonstrate that you value their well-being, promote work-life balance, build trust and transparency, and show empathy and compassion when their world gets flipped on its head.
The reasons why an employee might need a leave of absence could have your employees scared, excited, or uncertain, but Tilt makes providing a supportive leave easy, and your people will love you for it.
All their leave needs in one place
The first reason why your employees will be thankful you chose Tilt is that we remove all ambiguity around where they need to go for anything related to their leave. As one of our customers put it, “Tilt is the one spot where my employee base knows they can go for anything leave-related. Tilt automatically streamlines everything. Before they were saying, ‘here are the 8 people I tried going to in order to figure out what I needed to do for leave.’”
With clearly laid out and informative customized leave plans, support from one of our in-house Leave Success Managers, calendaring, and payment information all under one roof, your employees will be so grateful that you’ve made their transition from work to life and back a smooth one, even if their life is rocky.
Leave plan love
When an employee logs into Tilt, a customized leave plan will be waiting for them. This will provide step-by-step instructions on what actions need to be taken, when they need to be taken, and information on their rights. We even provide additional information that should they choose to explore will help them feel even more comfortable going on leave.
Every leave is different and every state is different, so when life hits the fan there’s no more impactful way to let your employees know you care than being there for them when they need support regardless of what part of the country they’re in.
From the jump, employees can breathe a huge sigh of relief when their leave journey begins because they know you’ve invested in a solution that will guide them through whatever obstacles life throws their way. When life requires that work takes a back seat, let your people feel confident that you’ve got everything under control with Tilt. They’ll thank you for it!
Mapping out the journey
Leaves can get confusing even for the most seasoned HR pros, let alone someone who has never had to take a bereavement leave. You’ve got FMLA and state benefits and different starting and stopping points for each program…it can be overwhelming for the savviest of us.
Tilt makes it easy for employees to see exactly which programs start when, when they overlap, and how much time left they have. It’s all on the same platform so you know that your people are seeing what you’re seeing. Clear communication FTW!
Payment prioritization
Groundbreaking research has shown that employees like to know when they’re getting paid and how much they’re going to get paid.
When an employee takes a leave of absence it’s imperative that they stay informed on how it will affect their salary. They might be receiving job protection through FMLA but no compensation, or maybe they’re receiving state benefits, or perhaps your organization covers 100% of their leave because you don’t have the bandwidth to manage state benefits form filing (we make that easy too so employers don’t miss out on those funds), or some combination of the above.
Want to have an employee heap praise on HR? Make their money matters as clear as day while they’re on leave. It could be the difference between an employee being hung out to dry, or HR saving the day.
