Leave & Attendance FAQs

How does the Penalisation policy impact LOP days?

Learn how tracking policies impact LOP (Loss of Pay) days in Keka HRMS. Understand how attendance and leave policies affect payroll and employee compensation.

The Penalisation Policy impacts Loss of Pay (LOP) days by enforcing deductions for attendance violations such as missing swipes, late arrivals, or unapproved absences. If an employee exceeds the defined threshold (e.g., three missed swipes result in one LOP day), the system automatically applies LOP. In some cases, available paid leaves may be exhausted before LOP is enforced. These deductions directly affect payroll, leading to reduced salary for the corresponding period. HRMS platforms like Keka allow companies to configure automated penalisation rules to ensure seamless tracking and enforcement of LOP policies.
