How the desk runs

One platform, from the rota to the weekly pay run.

  • Set the pattern once

    A client needs a maintenance engineer for a shutdown. Nights, alternate weeks, particular days to a month end — set the pattern once and the run is created rather than entered shift by shift.

  • Work the whole run together

    A big order arrives as a run of shifts, not one booking. Work all of them together, with filled, working and open counters moving as the desk covers them.

  • Break and fatigue rules applied

    The fatigue, break, recent-hours and duration checks you have configured sit alongside the booking, so a engineer is not rota'd into a pattern that breaks them.

  • Today, across every client

    Timeline puts the day's shifts across all clients in one view. What decides whether the contract is kept is whether the engineer arrives ticketed and inducted for the plant, and the gaps are visible before a manager has to ring.

  • Hours in, week paid

    Day-rate PAYE, umbrella and limited arrangements, built from the hours actually worked once the client has approved them.

  • Cover and fill-rate

    Dashman shows fill-rate by client, contractor margin and the disciplines you are short of.

Checks and clearances

Qualified and inducted before the placement starts

Qualifications, tickets and inductions sit on the worker record with expiry alerts, so the desk can see who is genuinely ready for the job in hand.

Questions

Shift Engineering recruitment software questions.

Can it handle repeating rota patterns?

Set the pattern once — nights, alternate weeks, particular days to a month end — and the run of shifts is created from it rather than entered one at a time.

Are break and fatigue rules enforced?

The fatigue, break, recent-hours and duration checks you configure sit alongside the booking, so the desk sees the conflict before a engineer is committed to it.

How are a run of shifts filled quickly?

Bulk shift copy and the Booking Desk work a whole run together, with filled, working and open counters moving as the desk fills them.

Does approved time feed payroll directly?

Approved hours build the weekly pay queue and carry into invoicing in the same run, rather than being re-keyed into a separate payroll system.

What checks does a engineering placement need?

Qualifications, tickets and inductions sit on the worker record with expiry alerts, so the desk can see who is genuinely ready for the job in hand. The desk holds professional and trade qualifications with expiry alerts, site and plant inductions recorded against the placement, right-to-work documents with expiry alerts, references confirmed on the worker record.
