What about employees who work multiple shifts in one day?

No problem — with our Premium plan, employees can seamlessly switch between shifts without clocking out first, ideal for split-day or split-location work.

Are breaks, surcharges, and rounding handled automatically?

Yes — Shiftbase automates surcharges, break registration, and rounding according to your configured rules. You can also choose whether schedules copy into timesheets or require approval.

Can I restrict clock-ins to specific locations?

Yes — use geofencing or IP address-based restrictions to ensure employees can clock in only from approved locations. This helps prevent fraud and keeps records accurate.
