Overview

Description

Planday is a powerful online employee scheduling software that enables its users to conduct all administrative tasks such as staff management, scheduling, time tracking, scheduling, reporting, and communication from a single platform. The software allows its users to quickly send updates to all the staff members when they clock-in so that everyone is informed about the upcoming changes. It enables the employees to text each other about trading shifts or finding a last-minute replacement without the users having to do that for them. Planday provides its users with schedule reports that enable them to see and track the number of shifts or hours worked by an employee. Users can also see the start and end of each shift, type of shift worked by the employee and employees that called in sick. The software enables the staff members to request time offs, and once a holiday request is approved, the system will no longer allow the user to schedule an employee who is away. Read more
