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

1

Schedule

Build rotas with compliance-aware conflict detection. The platform checks DBS status, training compliance, and working time limits before confirming assignments.

2

Track

GPS clock-in records attendance automatically. The platform compares actual attendance against scheduled shifts and flags discrepancies.

3

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.

Scheduling & Attendance Questions

It's drag-and-drop visual scheduling, pretty intuitive: Set up shift templates: Define your shifts once (Early 7am-3pm, Late 2pm-10pm, Night 9pm-7am, Long Day 7am-7pm, Weekend split, Bank holidays, etc.). Build rotas: Drag staff names onto the rota grid where you want them working. Statixs shows: color-coded shifts for visual clarity, staff availability (grayed out if they've requested time off), conflicts (red warning if double-booked or insufficient rest), qualifications (flags if you're assigning HCA to a shift that needs RGN). Copy successful patterns: If last week's rota worked well, copy it to this week and make minor adjustments rather than starting from scratch. Recurring patterns: Set up repeating shifts for staff who work the same pattern every week (e.g., Sarah works Monday/Wednesday/Friday 7am-3pm every week forever). Mobile access: Staff view their rota on mobile app, request time off through app (comes to you for approval), get notified of rota changes. Export: Export to CSV for payroll, print to PDF for notice board. Takes about 15-20 minutes to build a week's rota for 50-person care home once you've got templates set up, compared to hours with spreadsheets.
Statixs warns you in real-time and prevents schedule publication if there are serious breaches: 48-hour weekly limit (averaged over 17 weeks): Platform tracks rolling 17-week average for each staff member. Yellow warning if approaching 48 hours average. Red alert if exceeding - explains they need to opt out in writing or you need to reduce hours. 11-hour daily rest between shifts: If you try to schedule someone finishing at 10pm then starting at 6am next day (only 8 hours gap), platform blocks it with error message. Forces you to either change shifts or acknowledge override with written justification. 24-hour weekly rest: Flags if scheduling someone 7+ consecutive days without full day off. Night worker limits (11pm-6am work): Tracks night shift hours and warns if patterns unsafe. Opt-out agreements: You can manage staff who've signed 48-hour opt-out (legally allowed). Statixs tracks opt-out status, renewal dates (they can withdraw consent anytime), and still warns if hours become excessive even with opt-out. Why this matters: Employment tribunals increasingly awarding compensation for Working Time Regs breaches. Statixs gives you audit trail showing you managed scheduling compliantly. Can't claim ignorance when platform was warning you in red text.
Yes, and it's actually one of the better features for care groups: Centralized staff database: All staff across all locations in one system with location assignments. Location-specific rotas: Each care home has its own rota grid. Site managers only see their location, area managers see their region, head office sees everything (permission-based). Cross-site staffing: When one home is short-staffed, you can see which other locations have staff available. Temporarily reassign staff from surplus to deficit locations. Track which site to charge hours to (important for cost allocation). Consolidated reporting: Group-level view of total hours worked across all sites, overtime costs by location, staff-to-resident ratios per home, agency usage comparison between sites. Example use case: Care group with 8 homes. Sunnydale home has 2 staff call in sick, short-staffed for early shift. Manager logs into Statixs, views group-wide availability, sees Oakwood home has 2 staff who could cover. Requests transfer, Oakwood manager approves, rota updates automatically, hours tracked to Sunnydale for billing. No extra cost: Unlimited locations included in your £3–£5/user price (unlike competitors charging £50-100/month per additional site).
