Frequently Asked Questions About Free Templates
Are the templates really free?
Yes. All templates on this page are completely free. They download in CSV format — no registration or payment required.
Can I open CSV files in Excel?
Yes. All downloaded CSV templates open directly in Microsoft Excel, Google Sheets, and LibreOffice. You can edit them freely to fit your organization's needs.
Can I use the templates within my company?
Yes. You can adapt the templates to your HR processes and use them internally — add your logo, rename fields, and customize as needed.
When should I switch from Excel to HR software?
When your headcount exceeds 15, leave approvals start to lag, or timesheet errors impact payroll, switching to a platform like CADRO saves both time and money. See our detailed Excel vs CADRO comparison.
