Planning and time · Scheduling and planning

A schedule that is right before you publish it.

Plan per week and per location, and see staffing levels and hours per employee straight away. Curbo checks the Working Hours Act (Arbeidstijdenwet) and overlaps, and employees see their shifts in the app immediately. Swapping, picking up open shifts and submitting availability happen without the planner having to arrange them, with their approval.

  • Weekly schedule with staffing and hours
  • Checks on 11 hours' rest and overlaps
  • Open shifts, swaps and cover
  • Request availability
What it does

Scheduling and planning, part by part.

1

Planning by week

Drag, copy or repeat shifts per employee. You see per day how many people are scheduled, and per employee how many hours they are scheduled against their contract.

2

Working Hours Act

Curbo checks the rest between shifts, the maximum per day and per week, and overlapping shifts, when planning, when swapping and when approving.

3

Publishing

A week only goes out to employees once you publish it. Anyone with a changed shift gets a notification and confirms it in the app.

4

Open shifts and cover

Open up a shift and whoever is available picks it up. Ask a specific colleague to cover; they reply with one tap.

5

Shift swaps

An employee offers a shift or asks a colleague. Curbo checks rest periods and overlaps, and the manager approves.

6

Availability

Employees indicate per part of the day when they can work. Request availability by a deadline and see who still needs to respond.

7

Leave and sickness in view

Approved leave and sickness reports appear in the schedule. When someone reports sick, their shifts become open shifts.

8

Calendar

Employees add their schedule to Google Calendar or Outlook, always up to date.

Frequently asked questions

Good to know.

Does it work with multiple locations?

Yes, plan per location or for all of them at once. Locations cost nothing extra.

Can an employee swap without me knowing?

No, a swap always goes to the manager, after the check on rest periods and overlaps.
