Features of Shifton for Banking Industry

Bank Workforce Management Software for Efficient Multi-Branch Scheduling in South Africa

Shifton’s Bank Workforce Management Software simplifies complex shift management across multiple departments and branches, making scheduling effortless for South African banks.

Efficient Multi-Branch Scheduling. Shifton allows banks to manage schedules for multiple branches seamlessly. For example, a mid-sized bank with 10 branches across different cities can create a centralised schedule to optimise staffing levels across all locations. Its Multi-Language Support also helps address diverse workforce needs.
Customisable Schedules Based on Demand. Banks often experience peak hours during salary payout periods, holidays, or loan application seasons. Shifton’s dynamic banking schedule generator ensures additional staff are assigned to handle the surge. For instance, during the first week of the month, a bank can increase teller coverage to manage higher transaction volumes effectively.
Real-Time Adjustments. Unexpected absences or increased customer footfall are no longer a problem. Shifton’s scheduling software notifies available employees instantly to fill vacant shifts, reducing customer wait times and maintaining high service quality.

Detailed Reporting for Audit Readiness. Banks can generate comprehensive reports on attendance, labour costs, and productivity using banking and finance software for reporting. These reports simplify audits, performance reviews, and compliance tracking, helping banks stay fully compliant.
