Staff tags help you schedule staff who are the best fit for the shift. At times, a staff with the necessary skills and training such as Vaccination Status or having a food certification is required for a shift. With Staff Tags, you can make better manpower allocations based on your requirements.

Here are some examples of how Staff Tags can be used:

  • Statuses like Vaccination Status

  • Certifications

  • Probation Period

  • Seniority
