Plan around who can actually work.
Staff mark the services they can work from their phone, so you're not guessing who's free on Saturday. Running a fixed rota instead? Switch availability off.
Shift planning for horeca
ItaShift is one sheet for your restaurant, café, bar or gelateria: who works when, who can cover, and how many hours everyone made this month. Your staff use it from their phone.
Why ItaShift
A rota in ItaShift is more than names in boxes. Rule breaks show up before you publish, cover sorts itself out, and the hours are ready when the month ends.
Days across, roles down, every service of the week. Who works when, and where a place is still empty.
Shifts that may break Dutch working-time rules are flagged before your team sees the week.
Clock-out times, leave and sickness add up to one monthly report. Nobody retypes anything.
How it works
From an empty week to a rota your team sees on their phone, and a month closed with one report.
1 · Availability
Staff mark the services they can work from their phone, so you're not guessing who's free on Saturday. Running a fixed rota instead? Switch availability off.
2 · Repeat week
Copy a week into as many following weeks as you like. People on leave and closed days are skipped, so you only fix what really changed.
3 · Cover
Someone can't make it? They ask for cover, the team gets an e-mail, and the first colleague who takes it gets the shift. You see it on the rota straight away.
4 · Publish
Staff only see a week once you publish it. Everyone gets an e-mail with their shifts, and can add them to Apple, Google or Outlook Calendar.
5 · Hours and cost
Clock-out times, leave and sickness add up to one report with hours and cost per person, ready for your accountant as a CSV file.
Suggest fill
One click puts people who can work into the empty places of the week, skipping anyone on leave. The new names are outlined in violet, so you check them before you publish. The last word stays yours.
Made for the Netherlands
Contracts, minimum wage and working-time rules are checked while you plan, not after.
Horeca contracts
The seven contract types of the Horeca CAO, with their history, and leave counted in hours.
Minimum wage by age
You are warned when an hourly rate is below the legal minimum for the person's age.
Working-time warnings
Before you publish a week, shifts that may break the rules are flagged, like late shifts for minors.
