Our shift planning experts collaborate with you to analyse current rostering practices, identifying inefficiencies, and offering a roadmap to better shift planning. During our discovery session, we will determine:
Rostering Responsibility: First, we establish clear roles for your Business, Managers, and Employees, ensuring everyone knows their part in shift planning.
Core Principle Coverage: Next, we will examine the core principles of roster design you should know, including legislative requirements, contractual obligations, HSE best practices, business needs, and employee preferences. We’ll provide an overview of the next steps required to align your rosters with these principles for flawless execution.
Demand Analysis: A high-level demand analysis will be conducted as part of our health check. This will be a platform for broader alignment between your rosters and your business needs.
Implementation and Review: We will evaluate existing sign-off and audit systems or recommend new ones. We also scrutinise roster review methods, from budgeting to capturing employee input.
Compliance and Well-being: Finally, we will provide a compliance and employee well-being overview that highlights:
- Calculating working time for shift workers.
- Statutory compliance.
- Monitoring and documenting work durations.
- Weekly rest intervals and opt-outs.
- Compensatory rest procedures.
- Forums for shift working discussions and decision-making.
