In manufacturing, workforce planning is capacity planning: three rotating shifts, line-side attendance without a computer, overtime ceilings and training or certifications that expire. 4mystaff generates the rotation, captures clock-in at a shop-floor terminal, and produces a working-time record that satisfies the applicable working-time rules before export to payroll.
Generate 8- or 12-hour patterns with automatic rotation and enforced minimum rest between shifts. Every change reaches the line supervisors instantly. Set up for the UK: working-time records follow local working-time regulations — a per-employee record of the hours actually worked.
Badge, kiosk or tablet clock-in at the plant gate, matched against the planned shift. You know who is missing while there is still time to re-staff the line. Set up for the UK: working-time records follow local working-time regulations — a per-employee record of the hours actually worked.
Overtime, night premiums and work on rest days are calculated automatically and stay inside the ceilings your working-time rules set. Set up for the UK: working-time records follow local working-time regulations — a per-employee record of the hours actually worked.
Safety inductions, machine authorisations and role certifications live in one register, with alerts weeks before they lapse. Nobody starts a shift on an expired certificate. Set up for the UK: working-time records follow local working-time regulations — a per-employee record of the hours actually worked.
Timesheets approved by the shift supervisor leave as a payroll-ready file. No re-typing hours, absences or premiums. Set up for the UK: working-time records follow local working-time regulations — a per-employee record of the hours actually worked.
Through a terminal at the shop-floor entrance: badge, PIN or a code from their phone, in a single tap. The terminal keeps working when the network drops — clock events are buffered locally and synchronised when connectivity returns, so no shift start is lost.
Yes. Each employee record holds safety inductions, machine-operator licences and occupational-health clearances with their expiry dates. The system notifies the responsible manager 30 days ahead and flags any rostered shift where the assigned person’s certification has lapsed.
