Ce contenu n’est pas encore disponible dans votre langue.

Overview

The HR Management module covers the full employee lifecycle inside servEase — from onboarding to offboarding, from clocking in to shift publication. It is organized into three tightly integrated areas: Employee Management, Time Tracking, and Shift Planning. Together with devolta's RosterSolver product, it enforces country-specific labor law compliance automatically, covering CH, AT, and DE out of the box.

Employee Management

Employee Management extends the core User Management module with HR-specific master data and workflows.

Employment Data

  • Versioned employment records with start and end dates — supports contract changes, wage adjustments, and role transitions over time

  • Hourly and monthly wage types supported (gross only; no payroll processing / LOBUHA)

  • Configurable wage supplements (night, Sunday, public holiday) — rule packs available per country (CH / AT / DE)

  • Hierarchies and employee groups (e.g. Team Lead, Supervisor) configurable per tenant

Qualifications

  • Qualifications are assigned per employee as a many-to-many relationship — used for shift planning and task assignment

  • Qualification levels instead of a simple yes/no flag (e.g. "Bartender: Junior / Senior") for fine-grained shift control

  • Configurable validity periods per qualification (e.g. expiring certificates) with automatic re-certification reminders

Document & Permit Tracking

Every employee has a dedicated document archive. The following document types are tracked with expiry dates and automated pre-expiry reminders:

  • Residence permits (CH: B / C / L permit)

  • Work authorization

  • Health / food hygiene certificate

  • Driver's license (if applicable)

  • Any custom permit type configured by the tenant

Scanned copies are linked directly in the employee's document archive. Approaching expiry triggers automated reminders to the responsible manager.

Onboarding & Offboarding

Onboarding checklists are digital, configurable per role (e.g. "Service Onboarding" with steps and required documents), and tracked per employee until completion.

Offboarding workflow covers:

  • Revocation of servEase account access

  • Key / badge return tracking

  • Employment reference letter generation

Additional Employee Features

  • Emergency contacts per employee

  • Probationary period tracking with automatic reminder before expiry

  • Expense submission by employees (receipt upload via app, approval workflow)

  • Notification to employee via email when a new document has been added to their servEase account


Time Tracking

Clock-In / Clock-Out

Employees record their working time via the GPS-secured servEase employee app. Location verification prevents clock-ins from outside the workplace.

  • GPS-protected clock-in and clock-out via employee app

  • Manual time entry by employees (requires manager approval)

  • Manual time entry by authorized supervisors

  • Break recording — automatic or manual, including statutory minimum break check via RosterSolver

  • Recording of sick leave, other paid absences, unpaid absences, and regular working time

Supervisor Controls

  • Real-time hour overview and balance control for supervisors

  • Full audit trail / correction history for any retrospective changes (who changed what, when — revision-proof)

  • Balance calculation (actual vs. contractual hours)

Timesheets & Compliance

  • Digital timesheet signature by both employer and employee

  • Timesheet export (for payroll, auditing, etc.)

  • Archiving function built in — CH statutory retention period: 5 years

  • RosterSolver integration: clocked time is automatically checked against country-specific rule packs — warnings for rest period violations, maximum work hours, and other legal thresholds are surfaced immediately

  • Youth protection rule pack for apprentices and minors (e.g. night work prohibition) available as a separate RosterSolver rule pack


Shift Planning

Shift Requirements

Each shift is configured with the required headcount per role and the associated qualifications (e.g. Breakfast: 1 × Chef de Service, 2 × Service, 1 × Runner). Requirements are set per shift per week.

Planning Modes

Mode

Description

Manual planning

Supervisors plan shifts for their team; higher-level managers can plan across all teams

Legal compliance check

After manual planning, RosterSolver automatically checks legality and surfaces any conflicts

Fully automated planning

RosterSolver generates a fully legal shift plan based on requirements and employee data

Employee Wish Management

  • Employees submit preferred working times and shift requests via the employee app

  • Free-day requests are submitted the same way

  • The tenant can configure limits for shift wishes and free-day requests per employee per period (or leave them unlimited)

  • Wishes are considered as preferences during automated planning; approved absences (sick leave, vacation) are treated as fixed exclusions

Shift Exchange

Employees can request a shift swap with a colleague directly in the app. If both employees hold the required qualifications for each other's shifts, the swap is approved automatically — no manager intervention required.

Publication & Forecasting

  • Finalized shift plans are published to employees via the employee app

  • Balance forecast at end of planning period: expected hours balance, rest days, and other accruals

  • Target vs. actual staffing requirement compared against expected guest volume — linked to reservation and POS data for demand forecasting ("how many people do we actually need tonight?")

  • Labor cost projection per shift and per day (planned hours × wage rate), visible directly in the shift plan view


Dashboard Metrics

The HR module provides continuously updated key metrics across the workforce:

  • Turnover rate

  • Sick day rate (absenteeism)

  • Hours balance overview per employee and team

  • Labor cost vs. planned cost per shift / period
