Shift Management & Pay Configuration

Configure pay grades, unpaid breaks and overtime rules per shift. Know what your rota costs before you publish it.

Shifts that know their own cost.

Every shift type in Alpaka can have its own pay grade, unpaid break portion and overtime rules. When you build the rota, you see the labour cost in real time - before a single member of staff knows what they're working.

  • Pay grades configured per shift type
  • Unpaid break portions set automatically
  • Overtime rules built in - no manual calculation
  • Labour cost visible while building the rota
  • Feeds directly into automated timesheets

Flexible configuration

Different roles, different rates - configure as many shift types as you need.

Real-time cost visibility

See your weekly wage bill as you build the rota, not after the fact.

Feeds into payroll

Shift data flows into timesheets and payroll exports automatically.
