Sentiami HR & Scheduling

Sentiami HR & Scheduling — rota, clock-ins and certifications in one place

Restaurant HR usually runs three ways at once: a rota on the kitchen wall, hours in a notebook, and food hygiene certificates tracked in somebody's head. The Sentiami HR module brings them into the system already in use on the floor and in the kitchen, so there is no extra login.

The rota is built from data, not memory

Weekly availability is recorded per employee, and each shift carries its required staffing. The planner sees both in one view, so gaps and overlaps surface before the week starts. Leave requests and balances live in the same place, so a holiday request does not get lost in a message thread.

Hours are recorded during the shift

Staff clock in and out, by QR code from a phone where that suits. Overtime is separated out, and the labour cost report shows hours, cost and cost as a share of revenue. Tips are distributed per pay period. Payroll data is prepared for you; payment and tax are still handled in an external service for now, and a direct link to a payroll provider is coming.

Skills and permits stay valid

Certifications such as hygiene passes and alcohol licences are stored with their validity dates, and the system reminds you before they expire. Onboarding and offboarding run as guided steps, and passing a training quiz generates a certificate automatically. Compliance checklist items carry due dates and employee acknowledgements, and overdue items raise an alert.

A good fit for

Restaurants with part-time staff and changing shifts, and sites that must show permits and completed training when an inspector asks.

During setup we import staff, roles and permissions, define shift types and staffing requirements, and set up certifications with their reminders. Priced by quote – tell us about your restaurant and needs and we will send a quote.
