Shift scheduling for emergency and on-call services

On-call duty alongside regular shifts β€” both in one rota

Someone has to be reachable even when they aren't on shift. Dayswaps schedules standby shifts alongside the regular rota, the AI drafts a proposal from your rules and priorities while the final word stays with a human β€” and when someone drops out at short notice, a colleague takes the shift over straight from their phone.

What is shift scheduling for an on-call team?

Shift scheduling for emergency and on-call services means planning regular shifts and standby duty side by side, and having fast cover ready in case someone drops out at short notice.

Who has the final word when the AI drafts the rota?

AutoPlanner prepares the proposal from the rules and priorities you have set, but a person always confirms it. The rota fits the rules while responsibility for its final shape stays with the duty manager.

AI + Human

Schedule on-call alongside regular shifts

β€œAdd an evening on-call for all of next week.” On-call is its own shift type, so it never blends into a regular duty and it stays clear who is holding the phone. The assistant creates several at once, assigned or open. Nothing publishes until you confirm the schedule.

From the Complete plan up you can also ask for a custom report to download β€” β€œHow many weekend hours did each employee work last quarter?” β€” and the file arrives right in the reply.

The AI Assistant is part of every plan.
