Guard shift scheduling
Build the shift roster for every guard across every site, respect legal rest hours, and cover each post with no gap in coverage.
Per-site roster
See every shift on every site in one calendar, with 24/7 post coverage visible at a glance.
Coverage gap alerts
The system automatically flags any uncovered interval before the shift starts, so you can find a replacement in time.
Legal rest compliance
Automatic check of rest hours between shifts, so scheduling respects labour law and guard contracts.
How it works
Define the guard posts for each site, with the required time windows. Assign available guards to each post — the system automatically checks overlaps, rest hours and required qualifications (armed/unarmed, certification). Guards see their assigned shifts directly in the app and confirm they've taken the post.
Frequently asked questions
Can I schedule shifts for multiple sites at once?
Yes, with no limit on sites. Every site has its own post roster, visible separately or consolidated into a company-wide calendar.
How do I know if a post is left uncovered?
The dispatch dashboard automatically highlights any interval with no guard assigned, with an alert hours before the shift starts.
