# Who can see and change time off

_Skileo Human Resources › Time off · Who can do this: Business owner, Member_

The Business owner can do everything. A Member needs the Time off permission: View to see the requests, Edit to record, approve, reject, edit and delete them. Employees see only their own.

## “Business owner”

The “Business owner” sees every time off request and can do everything with it.

## “Member”

A “Member” needs the “Time off” permission, which the “Business owner” gives in “Settings”, “Members”.

- “View”: see “Time off” in the menu and every request, filter and search the list, and open a request read-only. Also the “Time off” tab of “Settings”, the “Time off” tab of an employee's page, the time off on the calendar and the time off cards of the “Dashboard”.
- “Edit”: also record, approve, reject, edit and delete requests, change the absence types and the paid leave rules, and change an employee's allowance.

A button they may not use doesn't show.

## Employees

An employee sees only their own requests, in their own space. They can ask for time off, and change or delete their requests while they wait or after a rejection. They never see the requests of others. See [Ask for time off](https://www.skileo.com/help/en/ask-for-time-off).

## Who gets the e-mails

- A new or changed request: the “Business owner” and every “Member” with “Time off” set to “Edit”.
- An approval or a rejection: the employee.

Deleting a request sends no e-mail.
