Cover the line with a headcount production can use the same morning

Who is on which line, who actually clocked in, and what the next shift inherits — without a whiteboard and yesterday’s printout.

Book a demo

On the line, missing cover and fuzzy attendance hit output before lunch. Shift leads need a number at six, not a reconstructed sheet at two. The Work App connects the roster, clock-in on the line, current instructions and the handover, so production and management look at the same figures the same day.

Challenges

Does this look like your week?

Where the day slips

  • Multi-shift cover still planned in a spreadsheet and a chain of calls
  • Attendance that payroll cannot trust, and a messy close
  • Work instructions that are last week’s printout
  • Quality checks with no way back to who signed them
  • Headcount and performance figures that arrive a day late

What the platform holds

  • A digital shift plan, including the swap that happened at dawn
  • Clock-in and clock-out that payroll can use as-is
  • Current instructions on the phone, at the line
  • Quality checklists with a photo and a timestamp
  • Daily and weekly totals the production office can open

A typical day

How the day actually runs

A production day: the shift sees the plan, people clock in on the line, instructions and checks stay current, the next crew inherits a written handover.

  1. Shift on

    Crews get today’s plan. The lead sees headcount and cover before the line runs.

  2. On the line

    Clock-in at the plant or the station. Hours that payroll and capacity planning can both use.

  3. Current spec

    Work and safety instructions on the phone. Yesterday’s printout is not the source.

  4. Line check

    A checklist with a photo. A miss goes to the lead at once, not at the end of the shift.

  5. Written handover

    Open issues and headcount documented for the next crew.

  6. Same-day figures

    Attendance, cover and exceptions. Available to management before the day is over.

In practice

What teams use every day

On the line, cover, attendance, instructions and checks have to travel with the crew — not on paper that stays in a folder.

Shift cover

Multi-shift planning, swaps and leave. Capacity visible per line.

Line attendance

Clock-in you can payroll from. Cover is a number, not a guess at 6 a.m.

Current documents

Instructions, quality rules and safety sheets. Always the version at the line.

Management numbers

Headcount, attendance and exceptions. Decisions without waiting for Friday.

Line channel

Leads and crews on one thread. A change in the plan reaches the station.

Line audits

Quality and safety checks on a digital list. Compliance you can show.

Visibility across multiple sites

We used to pull attendance and deployments across countries together manually. The Work App now shows at a glance who is working where, and digital time tracking makes reporting much easier. For our international team, that is a real day-to-day improvement.

Scheduling and attendance in one place

Since 2022 we have scheduled our dentists and nurses with The Work App, and onboarding went smoothly. Shifts, attendance and proof sit in one interface, saving us several hours of admin each week. That is exactly what we wanted for our practice.
