Staff roster scheduling

Weekly rosters that write themselves

Scheduling 5 to 15 cleaners, therapists, or technicians weekly is a giant puzzle. Factoring in holiday requests, travel times, and customer preference takes a manager hours of spreadsheet work.

What we build

  • Schedule drafting script that balances booking capacity against roster availability and client preferences
  • Automatic roster publication and SMS/email alerts sent to all employees on schedule
  • Shift swapping portal: staff request swaps which are approved or routed automatically according to center rules
  • Timesheet matching: compares rosters against POS log-ins for payroll prep
