Staff Wire Manager gives employers an easy way to schedule and communicate with hourly employees. You can create and post schedules, easily approve and track time off requests and shift replacements, and stay in close contact with your staff. ** Quickly create and distribute weekly schedules to employees. Staff get notified whenever their schedule changes and get timely reminders when a shift gets close. They also can easily access their upcoming shifts on their mobile device at any time. ** Manage time off requests easily. Employees enter their requests, you approve them as desired, and Staff Wire tracks them for seamless scheduling. ** Handle shift replacements painlessly. Employees in need of replacement offer a shift up, eligible coworkers get notified and request the shift, and then you approve a reassignment without stress. ** Conveniently manage schedule changes. Get notified on-the-go when issues come up needing your attention like approving shift exchanges and time off requests. ** Stay on the same page with your employees. Everyone has quick access to a company specific contact list for open communication through one click access to call, email, SMS, or other mobile messaging. Install this app ("Staff Wire Manager") if you're a manager or admin who creates and manages schedules. However if you're a staff member looking to see *your own* scheduled shifts and your company is using Staff Wire, then instead install the "Staff Wire" mobile app. The "Staff Wire" and "Staff Wire Manager" mobile apps are free alternatives to the Staff Wire web applications, but they still require that management create and set up a Staff Wire company account online.
