From fixed shifts to rotating patterns and auto-assignment rules — Squad HR gives you a complete shift management system that keeps every team covered without the manual overhead.
Create as many shifts as your workforce needs. Define start and end times, grace periods, expected daily hours, and assign a color for instant recognition. Then assign them to individuals or entire groups.
Define multi-week rotational shift patterns and assign them to groups or individuals. Squad HR automatically calculates which shift each employee is on for any given week, cycling through the pattern indefinitely.
Set up conditional auto-assignment rules that trigger when an employee joins or is left unassigned. Define conditions by department or designation, choose the shift, and Squad HR handles the rest — zero manual effort.
When employees need to change shifts — personal reasons, project needs, or medical — they submit a shift change request with their preferred shift and reason. The request flows through your approval chain before taking effect.
No extra modules. All shift tools are available from day one.
Create shifts with start time, end time, grace period, and color labels. Define expected hours and configure per-shift attendance rules.
Assign specific shifts to individual employees with effective start dates and optional end dates for temporary or project-based schedules.
Define weekly or bi-weekly rotational shift patterns. Auto-assign pattern cycles to teams so rotating schedules run without manual intervention.
Set up rule-based auto-assignment for new or unassigned employees. Define conditions by department, designation, or join date to assign shifts automatically.
Employees can request a shift change with reason and preferred shift. Requests go through a manager approval chain before taking effect.
See active headcount per shift, identify shifts with expiring assignments, and flag understaffed shifts before they become a problem.
Before assigning a rotational pattern, preview exactly which shift each employee will be on for every week of the cycle.
Set a fallback general shift for employees without a specific assignment. Future-scheduled primary shifts can override this automatically.
A filterable, searchable table showing every employee's current shift assignment, assignment source, and effective date range.
Employees and managers are notified when a shift change request is submitted, approved, or rejected.
Track how each employee's shift was assigned — manual, pattern, auto, or general — with full source visibility in the directory.
View shift headcount trends and export shift mapping data for workforce planning and scheduling audits.
