Employee Scheduling Software
A Better Way To Manage Restaurant Shift Planning
Restaurant Shift Planning Can Be A Real Pain.
Restaurant shift planning can be a real pain. You spend countless hours trying to create next week’s schedule, but you never seem to get it right. Someone complains about the amount of hours they received, you don’t have proper senior-to-junior level staff coverage, and you weren’t aware your sous chef had requested three nights off until he failed to show for the first one.
The problem many managers face when approaching staff scheduling is this: they’re too focused on the staff part of it. While employees have certain shift preferences and availability that need to be taken into consideration, the most effective way to create a schedule is to first define the shift. Competing priorities like daily budgets, historical data, employee preferences, and proper staff pairings all have an effect on each day’s results.
