Retail


The opening hours of retail stores have been tailored to the needs and wants of customers, resulting in a corresponding schedule for employees in the industry. Shift work, which may include holidays and weekends, can be a challenging burden for both employees and managers who need to organize the work process. Fortunately, the shiftplan.io application simplifies the process of creating balanced work schedules that comply with legal requirements. By using the app, employees can stay informed of their work schedule, which helps them better coordinate their free time with work obligations.

Highlighted features and characteristics of the shiftplan.io solution

Effortless Schedule Input

Thanks to its intuitive interface, inputting employee schedules is a breeze. The application offers a plethora of tools that simplify the creation of a fair and balanced schedule and help you stay on top of your staffing needs.

Schedule Compliance Checks

As the schedule is being created, any possible violations of labor laws and regulations are clearly highlighted. This ensures that employees are provided with the minimum required daily rest, do not surpass the weekly working hour quota, and that all other norms from collective agreements and internal rules are taken into account.

Employee Requests and Preferences

Employees can submit requests for vacation time, specific shifts, or days off. These requests are displayed to managers in a clear format when creating the schedule, making it easy for them to approve or deny the request based on current work needs and worker availability.

Staff Notifications

Employees are automatically notified of schedule changes via email. They can always access the schedule through their personal web portal, where they also have access to other relevant information about the work process.

Calculation of salary supplements

Collective agreements in healthcare define a multitude of salary supplements that are determined based on a detailed timeline of work. The application enables fully automated calculation of all salary supplements. This avoids lengthy manual hour counting, and the calculation is error-free and applies the same rules for all employees!

Integration with existing hardware and software

The application enables integration with existing HR systems in hospitals, as well as with systems for registering working hours and access control, at both the software and hardware levels. Such implementation of the application minimally interferes with established work processes and allows for continued use of all existing software and infrastructure. With the help of integration with the user directory, access to the application is also simplified, as employees can use their existing usernames and passwords to log in.
