Real-Time Staff Management & Multi-Location Support

For supermarkets operating multiple branches, managing shifts across various locations can be complex. Shifton’s scheduling supermarkets software centralises staff scheduling, providing managers with an intuitive dashboard where they can oversee workforce distribution in real time. The system enables quick reallocation of employees between branches based on demand fluctuations. Store managers receive instant notifications regarding staff availability, absences, and shift changes, ensuring smooth operations. Additionally, the mobile-friendly platform allows employees to access schedules, request time off, and swap shifts without the need for manager intervention. This level of autonomy boosts employee engagement and reduces administrative burdens on HR teams.

Shifton simplifies payroll management by automatically tracking employee hours, overtime, and break times, ensuring compliance with local labour laws. The supermarket’s staff scheduling software generates detailed reports that help managers monitor labour costs, assess productivity, and make data-driven staffing decisions. Compliance tracking ensures that all employees adhere to mandatory rest periods, preventing legal complications. The system also seamlessly integrates with existing payroll and HR software, eliminating manual errors and streamlining wage calculations. By automating payroll processes, supermarkets can significantly reduce administrative workloads while maintaining transparency and accuracy in employee compensation.
