An employee scheduling app allows you to easily assign shifts and notify employees of their schedules.

Digitalizing scheduling allows you to input data, such as time-off requests, and view the schedule according to job or employee to limit scheduling errors. Reassigning previous shifts is also a time saver.

With a good scheduling app, you can also communicate directly with your employees regarding each shift. Look for features such as adding a shift description, where you can add the location, specific tasks, and if any questions arise, you and your employee can directly message each other.

Connecteam’s employee scheduling features streamline the way managers create schedules and how employees view their schedules.

• Be notified of conflicts in schedules before publishing
