Restaurants and cafes
Staff attendance for restaurants and cafes, from their phones
Morning and evening shifts, part-time and seasonal staff, a second branch across town. Your team checks in on their own phones and the server confirms they are at the restaurant. No card reader at the door.
Sounds familiar?
Shifts that change every week
Openers, closers and weekend staff: who was meant to come in, and who did, gets lost in a group chat.
A reader for every branch
Card and fingerprint systems need a device at each door, installation, and new cards when old ones go missing.
Finding out too late
You learn that the opener is missing when customers are already waiting at the door.
How WorkIsHere helps
Shifts in the schedule
Give each person their week: up to two shifts a day, late nights included, with exceptions for single dates.
More about this featureKnow who has not arrived
Fifteen minutes after a shift starts, the person gets a reminder. At thirty, owners and managers are told who has not checked in. Both times can be changed.

Questions
Do my staff need to install an app?
No. WorkIsHere works in the browser of any phone and can be added to the home screen. The iPhone and Android apps are coming soon.
What do part-time staff cost?
Each active person takes one seat, whatever hours they work: $1 a month per seat, and the first seat is free. Pause seasonal staff while they are not working.
Can I follow several branches?
Yes. Draw a circle for each branch. Staff check in at whichever one they are at, and you see them all on one board.
What if someone forgets to check out?
The session closes itself after 14 hours by default and is flagged for a manager to review and correct.
