Scheduling Software for Bars & Pubs
Bars and pubs face extreme working hours. Between opening at 7 AM, the midday rush, happy hour, and closing in the middle of the night, building a legally compliant schedule is a daily challenge. Our artificial intelligence takes your continuous or split-shift constraints into account to generate optimized and fair schedules.
Expert Management of Split Shifts and Working Hours
Traditional restaurant and bar operations often rely on split shifts (working at lunch, taking a break, and returning for dinner). Our algorithm handles these double shifts while strictly adhering to the 12-hour maximum daily working window and mandatory break times.
Absolute Security for the 11-Hour Rest Period
No more human errors where a bartender closes the venue at 2 AM and gets scheduled for the 7 AM opening. The software automatically blocks these illegal situations and guarantees the minimum legal rest period between two workdays.
Anticipating Weekend Surges
Thursday, Friday, and Saturday nights demand maximum staffing. Easily schedule extra staff and reinforcements for these busy evenings while ensuring a fair rotation so your permanent team can enjoy a free weekend off every other week.
Case Study: Brasserie Open from 7 AM to 2 AM
The Challenge
A downtown brasserie employing 24 staff members (front of house, bar, kitchen) open 7 days a week. The goal is to ensure perfect coverage for lunch and dinner services while managing servers' split shifts and very late bar closures.
Constraints Configured for the AI
- Guaranteed minimum rest of 11 hours after closing at 2 AM.
- Managing split-shift days (lunch + dinner service) with an afternoon break.
- Ensuring a rotation so that every full-time employee has every other weekend off.
- Integrating extra staff specifically for busy Friday and Saturday night services.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
Does the software handle split shifts?
Yes. You can authorize up to two shifts per day for the same employee, allowing you to cover both the lunch and dinner services while controlling the daily shift span.
How are late closings handled?
The AI systematically enforces the 11-hour rest period. If an employee finishes at 2:00 AM, they cannot be scheduled before 1:00 PM the following day.
Can front-of-house, bar, and kitchen staff be differentiated?
Absolutely. The skill management system ensures that a cook is never scheduled at the bar, and vice versa.
