Scheduling

Build the week, check who can work, and publish it to your team.

Plan shifts on one board. Regsta shows availability and approved time off when you assign a shift, lets you check rest and weekly hours before you publish, and tells your employees when the schedule is out.

Build the week

Start from what you already know. Most weeks look a lot like the last one.

Shift templates

Save a shift as a template with its times, break and weekdays. Add it to the week for an employee in one step.

Copy last week

Copy last week's shifts into the new week as drafts. Change what is different, then publish.

Availability and time off first

Employees tell you when they cannot work or would like to work. When you assign a shift, Regsta shows who has approved time off or is unavailable at that time.
The Schedule page for the week 28 Sept to 4 Oct 2026. At the top: planned hours, employees with shifts, unassigned shifts and standard hours. Below: the buttons Auto-schedule, Shift templates, Copy last week, Add shift and Publish week, and one column per day with published shifts, each with Find cover and Cancel.

Fill the gaps

When a shift has nobody on it, or someone cannot make it, the request goes through Regsta instead of a group chat.

Open shifts

Offer a shift as an open shift. Employees can request it from their schedule, and a manager decides who gets it.

Cover requests

An employee who cannot work a shift asks for cover. A manager approves or rejects the request, and a rejection needs a reason.

Find cover

Find cover lists colleagues who could take the shift. Each one is checked against approved time off, overlapping shifts, 11 hours' rest, the 48-hour week and weekly rest in the week shown.

Check before you publish

Two tools show problems before your employees see them. Neither changes the schedule until you decide to.

Preview changes

Try changes to shifts and see what they do to planned hours and the rest rules. Nothing is saved while you preview.

Auto-schedule (rule-based)

Regsta suggests who takes each shift in the week. A suggestion is left out if it would give someone less than 11 hours' rest, more than 48 hours in the week, no 35-hour weekly rest, overlapping shifts, or a shift during approved time off or unavailable time. You review the suggestions and decide whether to apply them.
Auto-schedule and Preview changes look at the week on screen, not the weeks before and after, so check the week boundaries yourself. They do not calculate wage costs or apply the rules of a collective agreement.

Publish, and your team knows

Employees see their shifts once you publish the week.

Publish the week

Choose Publish week. Tick Email the schedule when it is published, and employees with an e-mail address get it by e-mail as well.

Mark as seen

Employees see their own shifts and mark each one as seen. It shows in the shift's history, so you know who has looked.

Calendar file

On their schedule page, employees can download a calendar file with their own shifts for the next six weeks.
