Productivity Management

Monitor staff productivity and performance across all locations. This allows you to identify top performers, address areas for improvement, and ensure consistent service quality across your franchise network.

Controlled access for location & Role-based management

Not all employees require access to the same level of information. Shyfter provides role-based permissions, ensuring that store managers, supervisors, and head office personnel can access only the relevant scheduling, payroll, or reporting data. This feature enhances security and simplifies management by granting specific rights based on job functions, ensuring that local managers oversee their own stores while corporate teams maintain overall control.

The system integrates with payroll providers, eliminating manual errors and ensuring compliance with different employment types and contractual obligations. This saves time and ensures accuracy across all business locations.
