Everything in one place

The tools your managers open every morning

Each part of MainStay HR answers a question a manager already has — and answers it in a single glance.

Secure staff portals

Role-aware logins for managers and employees, so everyone sees what they need — and nothing they don't.

Live staff dashboard

See who's in, who's late and who's away the moment the day begins, in one graphical overview.

Company planner

An interactive calendar of leave, sickness and cover across the whole team, month by month.

Time & absence

Track late arrivals and sickness, and keep a tidy ledger of time off in lieu that always balances.

Holiday allowance

Booked, taken and remaining — every person's holiday balance, clear and always up to date.

Bradford Factor scoring

Turn absence patterns into one objective score, so trends surface early — and fairly.
