Effective employee scheduling is the building block for the provision of excellent care and plays a key role in employee satisfaction levels. 

Softworks Workforce Management Software streamlines and optimizes the entire scheduling process based on up-to-the-minute employee time, attendance, absence and skills information to automate the creation of optimised, equitable schedules that fully match expected demand levels.

Schedules can be created weeks and months in advance giving employees more visibility over their working schedules allowing them a better work-life balance. Once finalised, schedules can be published through the Employee App so that staff are aware at all times of what their expected working pattern will be. In addition, features such as “shift swap” which allows employees to request shift swaps, contribute to giving employees more control over their working lives, creating a culture of motivated and empowered employees - vital in helping to retain and attract care staff.
