Gaps on the rota at the last minute
A sick call on Saturday morning means a round of phone calls to find cover.
For hospitality
Rosters that hold up on a busy weekend
Hotels, restaurants, cafés and caterers run on split shifts, part-timers and last-minute cover. Fill the gaps fast and pay the hours that were really worked.
What gets in the way today
Split shifts and late finishes
Lunch and dinner service on one day, closing after midnight — hard to add up by hand.
Hours that do not match the rota
People stay late or leave early, and the paper sheet only shows the plan.
How TopTimesheets helps
Open shifts and swaps
Post a shift and the first eligible person claims it on their phone. Swaps need a manager's OK (Team).
Kiosk at the staff entrance
A shared tablet with personal PINs and a selfie. No personal phone needed.
Split shifts and premiums
Split-shift allowances and night, weekend and holiday rates are worked out from the punches (Team).
Opening and closing checklists
Each venue gets its own checklists, filled in on the phone with photos (Team).
Rules for where you work
Frequently asked questions
Do you handle tips or service charge?
No. We cover hours, wages, overtime and premiums. Tips and service charge stay in your current process.
Can part-timers see their shifts?
Yes. Published shifts show on their phone, and they can add them to their own calendar.
Can I run several hotels or restaurants?
Yes. Each venue is a location with its own geofence, roster and time zone, and staff can work at more than one.
