Accurate and correct employee scheduling is a powerful labor cost control measure. With TimeForge, supervisors and managers can quickly and accurately create employee schedules while considering the needs of their business, as well as the desires of other staff members.
Each TimeForge employee schedule is a collection of many shifts, and each shift is assigned a corresponding start and end time, as well as position (or job), and employee. Other information can be included with each shift, including whether the shift is for an "extra" staff member, the section or station being worked, and other pertinent information.
TimeForge employee schedules can be of any usable business length - some businesses prefer one-week, two-week, or one-month schedules. Other businesses prefer a mix of schedules, and may have differing schedules based on departments or store requirements.
In the event of a scheduling conflict, TimeForge automatically notifies managers and supervisors responsible for creating schedules.
