If your company has shift workers (retail, production, restaurants, healthcare), Arya manages shift scheduling with weekly/monthly rotation and automatic minimum coverage checks.
Configuration

Settings → HR → Shifts → add standard shifts (e.g. “Morning 6-14”, “Afternoon 14-22”, “Night 22-6”).
Define positions
For each shift, specify how many employees must be present (minimum coverage).
Add required skills (optional)
Some shifts require specific skills (e.g. paediatric nurse). Arya suggests only qualified employees.

Define pattern (e.g. “7 workdays + 2 off”) → Arya generates the schedule for N weeks.
Arya suggests optimal assignment based on: skills, employee preferences, mandatory rest, workload balance, contract compatibility.

Via mobile app push notification
Email with weekly calendar
Sync to personal Google Calendar
