Are you tired of an inbox full of... Can't get caught up on updating...
PTO requests?
Schedule changes?
Changes to availability?
Contact information?
Certifications?
And court appearances?
Do you dread the phone calls asking...  
'When am I working?'  

Let PlanIt handle it! Our Employee Self Service (ESS) features manage these daily queries by providing the information directly to your employees. Within ESS, employees can view their schedules, request PTO, ask for open shifts, update their availability, and keep their personal information up to date. Your only involvement is the simple process of approving the changes and requests.

Does it feel like it’s impossible to keep your employees notified of changes? 

PlanIt is the tool to keep all employees informed of critical and every day issues to achieve faster responses. To accomplish this PlanIt offers over 100 hundred different notifications that are triggered automatically as events occur within your organization.  PlanIt can disseminate this time sensitive information via internal messages, email, and text messages.

Worried about not being able to fill an open shift at the last minute? 

Filling open shifts is significantly easier with PlanIt.  By comparing your staffing requirements to your recurring schedule and paid time off requests, PlanIt can identify open shifts months in advance. This allows employees to view and request these open shifts, leaving you with only the simple process of approving a request. As the date nears for an unfulfilled open shift PlanIt can send out immediate need notifications or show you who is available to work the shift with the availability tool. Even if a call off leaves you with an immediate open shift, PlanIt is there with call off notifications and tools to help fill the hole in coverage.

Do spreadsheets and paper schedules make you nauseous? 

We share your sentiment.  PlanIt was developed specifically for the public safety sector and contains the essential components administrators need on a daily basis to operate with greater efficiency. The PlanIt interface provides drag and drop scheduling that a spreadsheet cannot offer. Unlike spreadsheets that are only available on a single computer, PlanIt can be accessed from any computer at work, home, or on the road.

Does your printer need a vacation?  Have you ever printed a schedule only to realize within minutes that a change was needed?   
PlanIt posts the schedule electronically for everyone to see in real time as changes are made. A web browser and an internet connection is all that is required to view a schedule. For those who still prefer a paper copy of the schedule, PlanIt provides the ability to print the schedule in multiple views at any time.
