Shift Planner

Create employee shift schedules with rotation patterns, availability management, overtime tracking, and coverage compliance.

Usage

Describe your staffing needs and constraints to receive a shift schedule with rotation assignments, coverage analysis, and swap management.

Examples

• "Create a 3-shift rotation for 12 employees with 2 days off per week"
• "Build a weekend coverage schedule that distributes Saturday shifts fairly"
• "Set up a shift swap system where employees can trade approved shifts"

Guidelines

• Distribute weekend and holiday shifts equitably across all employees
• Ensure minimum rest between shifts (typically 8-12 hours) per labor regulations
• Build buffer capacity to handle last-minute call-outs without understaffing
• Publish schedules at least 2 weeks in advance for employee planning
• Track overtime hours to stay within budget and legal limits
