For solving numerous workforce issues, the answer could be a resounding ‘Yes’! Did you know that on average small business managers can spend up to 5 hours per week creating staff schedules? For businesses with over 50 employees in can be over 12 hours!   With our APlus scheduling module how we solve the most common workforce management headaches and save you the most valuable commodity of all…time!:

1. Automated Scheduling

Gone are the days of poring over spreadsheets. This module uses smart algorithms to create optimized schedules based on employee availability, skillsets, and business requirements. This ensures the right people are in the right place at the right time, reducing inefficiencies and preventing burnout. For example, a restaurant with fluctuating peak hours might use it to adjust staffing.

2. Real-Time Updates

Last-minute absences? Sudden changes in demand? No problem. The Scheduler allows managers to make instant adjustments and notify employees in real-time. Employees can receive quick updates on their schedules via the app, ensuring everyone stays informed and connected.

3. Compliance Management

Staying on top of labor regulations can be exhausting, but the Scheduler takes this burden off managers’ shoulders. It flags potential compliance issues—whether it’s overtime thresholds or mandated breaks—so adjustments can be made proactively.

4. Improved Communication

Employees want clarity and control over their schedules. With the self-service features in the Scheduler, they can view their shifts, request changes, and swap shifts (with management approval)—all from their devices.

5. Cost Control and Productivity Boost

Scheduling inefficiencies can quietly drain budgets. Whether it’s overstaffing during slower periods or excessive reliance on overtime, the Scheduler’s data-driven insights give businesses the ability to fine-tune staffing decisions, maximizing productivity without overspending.
