Shiftix — rethink every step of workforce scheduling
One connected platform for production shift scheduling, qualified replacement search, employee self-service, communication, approvals and workforce insight.

Automatic production shift planning — efficient and flexible
Build complete production shift schedules quickly and accurately while reflecting the rules that shape your real planning environment.

- Staffing requirements by production department and shift
- Employee skills, certifications and qualification coverage
- Employee preferences, time-off requests and restrictions
- Vacation, compensatory-time and overtime balances

The result Less planning effort, balanced shift coverage and more predictable operations.
02 · Rapid response
Intelligent replacement search for unexpected absences
Whether the cause is illness, last-minute leave or compensatory time off, Shiftix helps planners identify qualified replacements quickly.
- Automated suggestions and direct notifications to qualified available employees
- Semi-automated or manual selection with final control retained by the shift planner or supervisor

Shift swaps with control and compliance
Give employees more influence over their schedules while keeping every requested change within the required planning rules.

- Final approval remains with the shift planner or supervisor
- Greater autonomy and a better work-life balance for employees
The result Less administration, greater employee flexibility and more predictable shift coverage.
