How to Request Leave in WatheeqaHR

Log in to your WatheeqaHR employee portal, go to Leave, select the leave type and dates, and submit. You can track approval status, cancel a pending or already-approved request yourself, and see your remaining balance for each leave type at any time.

Steps

  1. Log in to the employee portal

    Use the account credentials your company set up for you.

  2. Go to Leave

    Select Leave from the sidebar to see your balances and request history.

  3. Choose a leave type and dates

    Select annual, sick, emergency or another configured leave type, and the start/end dates. WatheeqaHR blocks the request if it overlaps a date you already have a pending or approved request for, or if it would take a balance below zero.

  4. Submit for approval

    Your request goes to your manager or HR for approval — you'll see the status update once reviewed.

  5. Cancel it yourself if plans change

    A Cancel button is available on both pending and already-approved requests — you don't need to ask HR unless the request has already been rejected or cancelled.

Frequently asked questions

How do I check my remaining leave balance?
Your balance for each leave type is shown at the top of the Leave page before you submit a new request.
Can I cancel a submitted leave request?
Yes — for both a pending request and one that's already been approved. Cancel is only unavailable once a request has been rejected or already cancelled.
What happens if I request leave that overlaps a period I've already requested?
WatheeqaHR blocks it — you can't have two pending or approved leave requests covering the same dates. Cancel or wait on the existing one first.
