How the desk runs
One platform, from the rota to the weekly pay run.
Set the pattern once
A plant needs six machine operators for a new line. 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 operative is not rota'd into a pattern that breaks them.
Today, across every plant
Timeline puts the day's shifts across all plants in one view. What decides whether the contract is kept is whether the operator is ticketed for the machine before the shift, and the gaps are visible before a manager has to ring.
Hours in, week paid
PAYE with AWR and holiday pay, with umbrella for contract technicians, built from the hours actually worked once the plant has approved them.
Cover and fill-rate
Dashman shows fill-rate by plant, cover by line and where the week is short.
Checks and clearances
Ticketed and inducted before the shift
Machine tickets, inductions and PPE sign-off are held against the worker with expiry alerts, and confirmed before a booking is committed.

Questions
Shift Manufacturing 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 operative 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 manufacturing placement need?
Machine tickets, inductions and PPE sign-off are held against the worker with expiry alerts, and confirmed before a booking is committed. The desk holds machine and plant tickets with expiry alerts, line and plant inductions recorded against the placement, PPE sign-off before the worker goes on site, right-to-work documents with expiry alerts.
