Brussels, March 15, 2021 — HR tech company Shyfter, known for its digital workforce management solutions, played a key role in coordinating staff at the RupeLaar vaccination center in Niel, which serves six municipalities.

Managing a major logistical challenge

“We were facing a massive logistical challenge at a critical point in the COVID-19 crisis. Keeping everything on schedule was essential to ensure the vaccination strategy could proceed smoothly,” explains Eva Van Hansewijck, hr manager at the RupeLaar vaccination center and part of the Vlotter team.

“Since we already trusted Shyfter for other projects, we knew they could help turn this challenge into a success. Our next goal is to further scale our teams to reach 1,000 people per month.”

Comprehensive workforce management via shyfter

The Shyfter platform covers planning, reporting, shift tracking, and contract management.

Doctors, pharmacists, nurses, volunteers, and other team members register directly on Shyfter’s secure platform. Once approved with a single click, they receive access to available shifts — all in full compliance with GDPR requirements.

Each worker selects their own shifts, creating personalized schedules directly within the platform.

Time-saving and user-friendly system

“The system saves a lot of time in staff coordination and is user-friendly, ergonomic, and easy to manage remotely,” says Xavier Closon, head of planning at Shyfter.

“On top of that, giving employees control over their own schedules increases their engagement, which strengthens overall team reliability.”

Shyfter’s rapid growth despite the pandemic

Shyfter is revolutionizing workforce management and continues to experience fast growth, even during the pandemic.

Despite the negative impact of COVID-19 on sectors like hospitality and events, the start-up ended 2020 with a 300% growth rate.

“2020 was a year of mixed emotions,” explains Lionel Hermans, founder and managing partner at Shyfter.

“While clients in hospitality and events paused operations, sectors like construction, retail, and takeaway saw record demand, requiring more staff than ever.

We’ve since expanded to France and remain ambitious for the future. 2021 marks a strategic funding round and the launch of our V3 platform, with the goal of tripling our user base. Thanks to Vlotter and RupeLaar, we’re now ready to support vaccination centers across Belgium.”
