Online rota or rostering systems can give you:

shift allocation
shift swaps
staff availability
monthly or weekly labour costs
delegated permission for anyone you choose to be able to control this.
Shifts can be allocated and sent out to staff via their mobile devices which means you save time and staff have instant access to updates. Shifts can be easily changed and updated online. This allows more flexibility in this ever-changing environment.

Many systems allow you to have “free shifts” which staff can choose to pick up. This may give you greater flexibility in your rotas and allow you to spend less time calling staff to find cover.
