Automatically create and optimize shift schedules — fair thanks to AI-supported technology (tariff and legally compliant)
More About Schedule Optimization
Oftentimes, creating schedules can be error-prone and cost a great deal of time. However, shift scheduling is a routine HR task and one that occurs again and again. Ensuring an optimized process not only simplifies the relevant HR processes but also helps eliminate manual errors. That’s exactly what automatic schedule optimization with plano does. It automates shift scheduling based on given rules and guarantees the optimal shift schedule.
When it comes to schedule optimization, individual company requirements play a central role. Quality shift scheduling is key when it comes to working efficiently and economically as well as ensuring your company’s personnel needs are met in a balanced way. In addition, employee skills and needs as well as legal requirements need to be taken into account.
That means the following aspects should be included in schedule optimization:
- Collective agreement laws
- Legal regulations
- Employee preferences and needs
- Company requirement
A good shift schedule takes these criteria into account and creates the foundation for optimal staffing. Not only are such schedules necessary, but they are a great support for all HR processes.
With plano Schedule Optimization, you can automatically create shift schedules in just a few minutes. Not only does this reduce manual errors, but it also saves you valuable time when creating shift schedules and leads to optimal results.

- Priorities
- Breaks
- Working hours
- Tasks

- Shift blocks
- Post planning
