# Keep time off in the same story as your shifts

A working month is more than the days you clock in\. Annual leave, personal leave, paid leave, and unpaid time away all affect how a period looks later\. HoursKit lets you record time off beside ordinary shifts, so the same timeline shows both the work you did and the days you were away\. That fuller view is especially welcome when one month looks very different from the next\.

## Make paid time off visible in the right period

Record paid leave alongside the weeks it belongs to\. A period with fewer ordinary shifts because you took a few days away still shows what happened\. A later comparison has an explanation for the gap between two busy weeks, with the leave visible on the same timeline\. An annual leave day stays visible beside the workdays around it\.

## Keep unpaid leave separate from worked hours

Unpaid time off remains visible without being mixed into the work hours used for an estimate\. That distinction explains a lighter week and helps you plan around time away\. You still see the leave alongside the shifts immediately before and after it\. Paid and unpaid leave can sit side by side without making the hours mean the same thing\.

## See leave in the rhythm of the month

Time\-off entries live with the dates and period views already used for shifts\. A freelancer can see a planned break between client work; an hourly worker can see leave in the same period as their ordinary shifts\. The result reads like the month you lived, with time away integrated into the same timeline\. A day of paid annual leave on Monday, unpaid leave on Tuesday, and ordinary shifts later in the week remain easy to distinguish\.

## Make a quieter week easy to explain

A few days of paid annual leave or unpaid leave can change the shape of a week\. Keeping the entry beside ordinary shifts makes that change immediately visible in your own timeline\. Months later, the reason for the difference is already there without hunting through calendars or old messages\. That is especially helpful after an otherwise regular run of work, especially during a busy season\.
