Scheduling & Attendance
Shift management with compliance-aware conflict detection, GPS clock-in, timesheet approval, and Working Time Regulation tracking. Scheduling decisions connect directly to staffing baselines and compliance enforcement.
Rota Planner
The Scheduling Challenge
Care organisations build rotas in spreadsheets, track attendance on paper, and manage leave through verbal requests. Scheduling is disconnected from compliance — a shift can be assigned to staff with expired DBS checks, unstaffed shifts do not trigger governance alerts, and Working Time Regulation breaches go undetected until audit.
What the Platform Does
Shift Management
Create, assign, and manage shifts with automatic conflict detection. The platform prevents double-booking and flags compliance issues before shifts are confirmed.
GPS Clock In/Out
Location-verified attendance with GPS-enabled clock in and out. Timestamps and locations are recorded automatically for audit purposes.
Timesheet Approval
Structured timesheet approval workflows with manager sign-off. Discrepancies between scheduled and actual hours are flagged automatically.
Staffing Baselines
Define minimum staffing requirements by role, time, and location. The platform monitors actual staffing against baselines and triggers alerts when thresholds are breached.
Leave Management
Structured leave requests with approval workflows. Leave decisions consider staffing baselines — approvals that would breach minimum staffing are flagged before confirmation.
Agency Worker Allocation
Allocate agency workers to shifts with the same compliance requirements as permanent staff. Agency credentials are verified before shift assignment.
How It Works
Schedule
Build rotas with compliance-aware conflict detection. The platform checks DBS status, training compliance, and working time limits before confirming assignments.
Track
GPS clock-in records attendance automatically. The platform compares actual attendance against scheduled shifts and flags discrepancies.
Enforce
Staffing data feeds into compliance scoring. Understaffed shifts trigger governance alerts. Working Time Regulation breaches are flagged before they become violations.
Regulatory Context
CQC Regulation 18 (Staffing) requires sufficient numbers of suitably qualified, competent, skilled and experienced staff to meet care needs. Scheduling & Attendance provides the operational framework to demonstrate staffing compliance under inspection conditions.
Connected Modules
Compliance Intelligence
Staffing levels and attendance data feed directly into governance scoring and risk assessment.
Workforce Verification
Only staff with valid DBS and Right to Work can be assigned to shifts.
Training & Credentials
Training compliance is checked before shift assignment. Expired credentials prevent scheduling.
