Each person is counted against the holidays of their own work location. By default, that’s the organization’s work location — the country set in Settings → Organization. Who: HR, Administrator, Owner. Where: the person page → Work location section.

Set a person’s work location

Use this when a person works in a different country from the organization default.
1

Open the person

Click the person on the People list and go to the Work location section.
2

Choose the country and date

Choose the Country and the Effective from date. The change applies to days from this date onwards. Earlier periods stay as they were.
3

Save

Click Save.
Result: the section shows Set individually from …, or a scheduled change if the date is in the future. To make the person follow the organization setting again, click Use organization default.
After you set a new work location, check that the holiday calendar for that location and year is confirmed. If it isn’t, the person can’t submit requests for that period.

Profile country is not the work location

The Profile country field (for example from an import) is only profile data. It does not change the holiday calendar. The calendar depends only on the work location.

Location schedule

A work location can have its own work week. See Work schedules. Changing a location’s country doesn’t change its schedule.
