# Strike Exemption Request

Strikes are marked when you get late to office or leave early. Every organization has different set of strike rules for coming late or leaving early.

 For ex. if you are late by 30 minutes there is a **Yellow Strike**.

if you get late by an hour there is a **Red Strike** and so on.

* Once a strike is marked, you can see the same on attendance page. 
* Your organization may also mark your absent/half-day based on number of strikes you get in a month.

In case your strike is marked and you have a reason that it should not be marked, you can send a Strike exemption request to your manager for the removal of Strike.

To request the removal of strike hit due to late coming, early going, or more, click **Strike Exemption Request** option under Requests.
