Sync your work schedule with Google Calendar, iCal, and Outlook

Your employee schedule subscription link is available in your account page, which can be accessed from the “Settings” menu.  Here’s a tutorial that walks your through setting up calendar sync.

• Now when your employees give up their shifts, they are still responsible for the shift until someone picks up the shift on the dashboard.

As a manager, you’ll never have to fret about attendance gaps in your schedule due to employees dropping their shifts.

In Hello Scheduling, employees can enter their time off and unavailability.  This helps in a number of ways:

• Managers won’t accidentally schedule an employee when they have time off.  Also, inputting your employees unavailability will tell our autoscheduler when not to schedule them.
• Employees are more satisfied with their jobs, because they have some “say” in the schedule.
• Managers have an excellent record keeping system of timeoff, in case the department of labor does an audit of their business.
• Manager have final say when an employee requests timeoff or unavailbility.  As the manager, you can always deny an employee’s availability request.

With our work schedule program, you can throw away your employee availability forms and templates.  We provide a system that combines employee availability, staff hour tracking, and scheduling in one.

Hello Schedule make it easy for your employees to request unavailability

With Hello Scheduling you’ll be able to create different schedules for your different departments.  For example, you can create separate schedules for the deli, registers, stock shifts, and more.

How We Make Being a Grocery Store Manager Easier

With our autoscheduling capability, you can create schedules for your employees with just a few clicks.   Our autoscheduler will ensure that your employees are never scheduled when they have time off, their hours won’t bleed into overtime, and you’ll always have the right skill on the shift (you’ll never schedule the butcher to work the registers again!).

With Hello Scheduling, all of your staff members receive a log in.  They can view their schedule online from any computer, mobile phone, or tablet with an internet connection. Furthermore, you can text message employees about their shifts right from Hello Scheduling.

Being a food store manager is tough.  Use Hello Scheduling to create your grocery store schedule.

While your store might not require many shifts, one or two employees serving the yogurt and a shift for managing the register, scheduling your yogurt shop can become difficult when you have a large staff to work these shifts.

Many yogurt shops, especially those in college towns, utilize student labor. Students are notoriously difficult to schedule, because of classes.  Taking all of their unavailability into account when creating the work schedule can be a very difficult task.  Hello Scheduling makes it very easy to take into account your employees time off.

Labor laws and employee breaks are also something you’ll need to consider when creating the staff schedule.  With Hello Scheduling, we automatically calculate your employees’ breaks using our advanced algorithms.

Finally, with Hello Scheduling, you’ll be able to keep your staff up-to-date.  You can easily publish the schedule online for all of your employees to view and you can text message employees if there are shift changes.

So get started scheduling your frozen yogurt shop now!

• Select the employee schedule dates you want to print
• Change the font size.  You can really create a printout with almost poster font size
• You can include shift tags
• And if you want to make it easy for you to keep written notes, you can choose to print each day on a separate page.

Hey Everybody!

Today we released shift schedule filtering, making it much easier to view and print large employee schedules. You can easily filter the schedule to:

• See only shifts that you are working
• See only unscheduled shifts
• See only shifts of a specific color
• See only shifts that have a specific tag

Now you can filter to see only the information that you need, as well print a filtered view of your calendar.

Please let us know what you think and Happy Scheduling!

Here’s a quick walkthrough video that will show you exactly how our auto-scheduling capability works.  We think you’ll really like setting “favorite” employees on your shifts.
