FOR HOTELS, RESTAURANTS & CAFÉS
Schedules that survive a busy Friday night.
AI-built shift schedules, employee-led shift swaps, integrated chat for the floor and POS-linked payroll exports - built for kitchens, bars and front-desk teams that change daily.
What hospitality teams struggle with
High turnover, last-minute call-outs and managers stuck rebuilding the rota at midnight. hours24 takes that off your plate.
PAIN
A waiter calls in sick at 16:00 and the shift lead is calling 6 people.
FIX
Post the open shift to the whole team or one group at once. The first to claim it gets it - instantly or after the manager's one-tap approval.
PAIN
The rota is in WhatsApp, the time clock is on paper and payroll lives in Excel.
FIX
One platform: scheduling, time tracking, leave, chat. Payroll exports directly to Erply, Netvisor and others.
PAIN
Late-night, weekend and public-holiday surcharges get forgotten at payroll time.
FIX
Premium rules run automatically - night and evening windows, weekend and public-holiday surcharges land in the payroll export with their own pay codes.
PAIN
Hard to spot which venue is over-staffed on Tuesday lunch.
FIX
Per-venue dashboards show hours-to-cover ratio in real time. Ask the AI: "which venue is over-staffed this week?"
