Personnel Scheduling Software

Snap Schedule personnel scheduling software let you easily schedule employees with the right skills at precisely the right times to match workload demands. It is the easiest way for companies to transform time-consuming, manual ways of personnel scheduling into effortless workforce management.

Office managers often spend countless hours on personnel scheduling to come up with the right rosters for changing workload requirements. Optimized staff schedules can provide tremendous benefits since overstaffing wastes payroll dollars while understaffing results in lost sales and poor customer service. The more time managers spend on employee scheduling, the less time they spend working directly with employees.

Personnel scheduling can be complicated and present many challenges. Most managers have a variety of job positions to schedule and shifts to cover. Managers must deal with peak hours and high seasons to allocate employees proportionally by the hour of the day and/or rotate employees to ensure an even spread of shifts for each employee. Union and FLSA rules may place restrictions on work hours, overtime compensation, and the types of work schedules that can be implemented. Managers must also consider time-off requests, labor rules, and employee availability when developing schedules for full-time and part-time employees.

Snap Schedule personnel scheduling software is packed with powerful personnel scheduling features and gives you instant access to key decision-making criteria, including staffing requirements, regular, overtime and on-call hours, labor costs, employee skills and certifications, employee availability and preferences, and much more. With Snap Schedule personnel scheduling software, managers will save scheduling time, improve efficiency, reduce labor costs, and strike a work-life balance for employees.
