With AgencyWeb IWM, employees are able to bid on vacation dates based on agency policies and union rules.  Bids can be offered agency-wide or to select groups during agency-defined time periods.  Limits can be set on the number of personnel in a shift given the day off so that staffing levels do not fall below minimum. Once the award period has concluded, vacation hours are automatically deducted from employee’s leave balances and award dates are posted on shift rosters and employee calendars.
