Does the absence management system link to payroll?

Yes. Each absence type is paid or unpaid with its own payroll code, so absence shows on the timesheet and goes out with the payroll export set up for your business.

How secure is absence and medical data?

Rotageek is certified to ISO 27001 and ISO 9001. You can keep sensitive absence types private from colleagues, and single sign-on can be set up for your organisation.
