Shift Buffering lets managers set min. time between shifts

Yes, SHIFT BUFFERING has arrived! Wait…. you may be asking “What is shift buffering?” Shift Buffering allows managers to define a time interval between shifts when an employee can NOT be scheduled. Now you may wonder “Yeah, so… why is this important?” Buffering intervals are a simple solution to a variety of scheduling situations that would traditionally require management to manually track and adjust time gaps between shifts.


Reduce time scheduling. Achieve compliance!

Why is this needed?
The eSchedule suite of Time Settings already help managers regulate O.T. situations and manage seniority requirements with tools for daily and weekly hour maximums. Now with the Shift Buffering feature managers can configure their eSchedule time settings to effortlessly comply with labour regulations, meet company standards, and respect employee preferences.

Why is this useful?
Most notably Shift Buffering provides an error-free tool to achieve government provisional rest requirements. However, this feature can also be used to manage the travel time needed by employees who work split shifts or at multiple locations in a given day. Physicians, residential caregivers, and retail staff are able to be scheduled between facilities without fear of scheduling errors resulting in short staffed situations.
