Fill Shifts Faster
Creating a schedule and keeping it filled is tedious and time-consuming. With MakeShift’s Available Shifts feature, managers can fill shifts in no time.
Available Shifts
- Available shifts can be created by the scheduler from either the web or mobile app. Once you’ve entered the necessary information—date, start time, notes, etc.—you can notify either all or select employees about the shift. The employees can then request it right from their smartphone. All requests for the shift are collected and can be assigned to an employee(s) by the manager. The schedule is immediately updated and employees are notified of whether they were assigned the new shift or not.
Real-Time Updates
MakeShift updates scheduled shifts, availability, and other information in real-time, ensuring managers and employees are all working with the same, up-to-date information. Users can also set custom notifications, so that they’ll be alerted as soon as anything changes. Additionally, work schedules can be quickly synced with Apple, Google, Outlook, and other calendars.
Easy Shift Swapping
Employees can post their shifts for eligible co-workers to pick up or can exchange shifts with each other right from their mobile devices. Administrators ultimately have the final say in which exchanges are approved, but the changes are initiated by the employees with the click of a button.
Instant Workforce Communication
With our built-in Announcements feature, you can communicate schedule information to all, some, or individual employees, who will instantly be notified when a new message arrives.
MakeShift Live
MakeShift Live is a mobile app designed for managers on the go. The iOS and Android app allow schedulers to manage approvals and their schedule right from their tablet or mobile device. The app frees managers from their desks, letting them manage their staff on the move, while keeping them up-to-speed on who’s working, who’s available, who’s late, and who’s off.
Time & Attendance
