Digital shift scheduling works through cloud-based software that allows centralized management of working hours, shifts, and availabilities. Instead of manually creating schedules in Excel or on paper, companies use a platform like Aplano to automate the entire planning process and make it more efficient.Managers create shifts via drag & drop, take vacation times into account, and receive automatic notifications in case of planning errors or staff shortages. Employees, on the other hand, can view their current schedule online or in the app, request or swap shifts, and indicate their availability directly. Key features of digital shift scheduling with Aplano:
Centralized management of all employees and shifts
Real-time automatic synchronization
Mobile access via app or web
Integrated absence management and time tracking
Increased transparency and reduced communication effort
Digital shift scheduling ensures better clarity, planning reliability, and time savings – for both employers and employees.
