Optional labour metrics

Wage details are optional. Add average hourly cost if you want labour estimates. Skip it if you only need a simple shift roster.

Manager-only labour metrics can help you check daily and weekly wage totals before publishing. Staff-safe roster views never show wage %, labour costs, income targets, or manager-only financial metrics.

Add lunch, dinner, and weekend needs, including how many people you need in each role.

Send and manage changes

Publish the roster without exposing manager numbers.

Send a staff-safe roster to your team. Staff can receive notices and report issues like sickness or needing cover, while managers handle replacement decisions.

Built for the messy parts of hospitality weeks.

Friday dinner gets busier. Someone calls in sick. You still need a clean manager view and a safe staff view that only shows the shifts people need.
