Work scheduling
With Tarkma’s work scheduling solution, a company plans which employee needs to be present on which day and shift, in which room or position. It is a tool where the planner’s workload is kept to a minimum, flexibility and decision-making are not hijacked by the software, and schedule distribution across the team happens automatically.
Who? When? Where?
Every work schedule answers the questions “Who?” and “When?”. In Tarkma, the schedule also answers “Where?” – in which room, at which machine, in which position.
Personal schedule view
With Tarkma, there is no need to send schedules or schedule changes to employees – each employee can view their schedule on their own device.
Work organized in one or several shifts
Work across several shifts, especially with person-specific exceptions, can quickly turn into chaos. In Tarkma, we have managed to give the schedule planner rare clarity – without making the system rigid, restrictive or overly controlling.
Work across multiple locations
In real life, employees may work in more than one location or department of the same company – a clinic branch, a specific restaurant in a chain, a production workshop. Tarkma is built to handle real-life needs.
Control mechanisms based on work organization
Different companies organize work differently. In Tarkma, each client’s logic can be programmed into the system – for example, a workplace may need to be filled by two employees, one doing one task and the other doing another.
If something in the schedule does not fit, Tarkma immediately brings it to the planner's attention
Payroll calculations
The necessary data can be entered for calculating wages – or, the other way around, the data can be prepared and exported for payroll calculation.
Well-thought-out practical details worth highlighting
Managing days off and absences
Absences and their type can be marked directly in the schedule: vacation, sick leave, training – or whatever absence types the company uses.
General + person-specific working hours
A two-level setup that keeps things simple, but flexible.
Setting standard hours
When employees work part-time, each employee can be assigned a planned number of hours, even month by month. This keeps it clear whether the required total number of hours is covered across all employees – and while building the schedule, it is constantly visible whether each employee has been scheduled according to the agreed workload.
Schedule draft
A work schedule can be created or edited as a draft – it is not immediately visible to everyone, but published when the time is right.
Coverage tracking
Separate views focus on the workplace – a room, production or catering position, or something similar – rather than the employee. This makes it easy to see where the schedule still has unfilled spots.
