Common Questions

Which countries are supported for compliance?

UK Working Time Regulations, EU Working Time Directive, US FLSA, Australia Fair Work Act, Canada Labour Standards, New Zealand Employment Relations Act, Ireland Working Time Act, and South Africa BCEA.

How do shift swaps work?

Employees request swaps through the app. You can configure auto-approval for trusted staff or require manager approval. The system checks for conflicts and compliance before allowing swaps.

Can we track labour budgets?

Yes. Set budgets at daily, weekly, or monthly levels for positions or groups. See real-time cost calculations as you build the rota, with traffic-light indicators showing green, amber, and red status.

Does it integrate with the time clock?

Fully integrated. Scheduled shifts link to actual clock events. See adherence status (on-time, late, early, no-show) and start/end variance tracked in minutes.

Can it check training requirements before scheduling?

Yes. Link internal and third-party certifications to positions. The system warns or blocks scheduling when an employee lacks required training or has expired certifications.
