Restaurant Employee Scheduling & Staff Management App

Build faster schedules, manage team availability, and keep your kitchen and front-of-house perfectly staffed.

Complete Visibility into Your Restaurant Staffing

From fine dining to fast-paced quick service, your restaurant’s success depends on having the right people at the right time. ShiftFlow’s live dashboard shows you exactly who is on shift, who is approaching overtime, and where you might be understaffed during the lunch or dinner rush.

Empower your managers to make data-driven staffing decisions, ensuring every table is served and every shift runs smoothly.

Ensure Labor Compliance and Fair Workweeks

Restaurant labor laws can be complex, involving mandatory breaks, overtime limits, and fair workweek requirements. Our platform automatically flags potential violations before you publish a schedule, helping you stay compliant and avoid costly fines.

Keep accurate records of hours worked and breaks taken, providing a clear audit trail and peace of mind for both owners and staff.

Frequently Asked Questions

How does scheduling software help with restaurant labor costs?

Scheduling software allows you to see labor costs in real-time as you build the schedule. You can set labor targets and receive alerts if you're over-scheduling, helping you keep costs within budget while maintaining high service standards.

Can staff request time off and swap shifts through the app?

Yes, ShiftFlow includes a self-service portal where employees can submit time-off requests and propose shift swaps with coworkers. Managers can review and approve these changes instantly, keeping the schedule updated without the back-and-forth.

Does the app support different roles like servers, cooks, and hosts?

How can I manage shifts across multiple restaurant locations?

Our platform is designed for multi-unit management. You can toggle between different locations, compare labor metrics, and even share staff between sites to cover gaps, all from a single administrator account.

What happens if a staff member is late for their shift?

Managers receive instant notifications if an employee hasn't clocked in by their scheduled start time. This allows you to quickly address the absence and adjust floor coverage before it impacts guest service.
