Shift planning

Build the week, publish it, everyone knows

Each department gets its rota for the week. You work on a draft, publish when it is right, and every employee gets their shifts on their phone with a notification.

Nobody sees the rota until you publish it

Change shifts as often as you like while the week is a draft. Publishing locks it and tells the team.

  • Locked once published

    A published week can’t be changed by accident: set it back to draft to edit it, then publish again.

  • Leave already on the rota

    Approved leave and rest days show in the grid, so you see who is away before adding a shift.

  • Hours against the contract

    Each person’s planned hours sit next to their contract hours.

The day in portrait, the week in landscape

  • The day, by time of day

    Morning, afternoon and evening, with breaks and notes. Managers can also group the day by department.

  • Turn the phone for the week

    The same grid as the dashboard, to check the whole week on the move.

One person, one shift at a time, across every site

Averty refuses a shift that overlaps another one, in any department or site. Back-to-back shifts are fine.

  • Shifts past midnight

    A bar shift from 18:00 to 02:00 is one shift that ends the next day.

  • Split shifts

    Lunch and dinner on the same day, each with its own times.

  • Hours at other sites

    When someone also works at another site, the rota shows those hours too.

Ask a question

How do employees see their shifts?

In the Averty app, on iPhone and Android. They get a notification when the week is published and see their shifts straight away.

Can one person work at several sites?

Yes. Each person has a home site and can be assigned to departments at other sites. Averty prevents overlapping shifts across all of them.

Can I add the same shift on several days?

Yes. When you add a shift, pick several days and the same shift is added to each of them.
