The Challenge

Workforce Challenges for Restaurant Staff

Kitchen and counter on different schedules

Prep staff arrive hours before service — one roster template does not fit all roles.

Late night closing shift gaps

Closing crews scheduled on WhatsApp — no-shows discovered after last orders.

Weekend shift chaos

Friday-Sunday staffing changes hourly but rosters are not updated in real time.

Shift swaps without audit trail

Staff trade shifts verbally — managers discover wrong crew only at service time.
