Problems Restaurant Staff Teams Face Every Day
Shift confusion before service
Kitchen and floor staff arrive unsure of their assigned shift — managers waste prep time resolving roster disputes.
Late-night attendance goes unrecorded
Closing staff leave without proper check-out, making overtime and half-day calculations unreliable.
Overtime surprises at month-end
Festival rushes and weekend rushes pile up unrecorded extra hours that payroll discovers too late.
Inconsistent tracking across branches
Each outlet uses different methods — registers, WhatsApp, or manager memory — with no central visibility.
