Additionally, the staff app integrates various functionalities such as rota management, clock-in systems, payroll tracking, tips management, and food safety inspections, providing a centralized tool for venues to oversee bookings and daily staff operations. This service is specifically designed to assist independent hospitality establishments in the UK, ensuring they can effectively manage reservations during peak service hours as well as outside of operating hours.
