Can Tanda roster breaks?

Yes, Tanda’s employee roster app can automatically roster staff for compliant meal and rest breaks. Our online staff rosters contains an automatic breaks feature which allows users to specify what breaks their staff have to take and when. This is based on how long their shifts on the online staff roster are and whether they are paid or unpaid shifts on the employee roster app. Instead of manually adding breaks to each shift on the online staff roster, for each employee, for each week, Tanda will add them automatically to your staff roster app and timesheets. Break rosters are functional and easy.

Building upon automatic breaks, you can also use the online staff roster to specify when a break must be taken in each shift to remain compliant with your award’s specifications. For example, clause 16.2 of the Hospitality Industry General Award specifies that unpaid meal breaks must be taken after the first 2 hours of a shift on the roster schedule app, but within the first 6 hours – both of which are configurable in Tanda’s rostering software programs app.

Our employee rostering software also allows you to name the breaks you’ve configured in the online staff roster (roster schedule app), and allow staff to select which break they’re taking to ensure the correct breaks are being recorded in the online staff roster (roster schedule app). Many hospitality or quick service restaurants distinguish between meal breaks and drinks breaks – apply these names to reduce the risk of staff clocking the wrong break.

At the same time, you can also use our online staff roster (roster schedule app) to set minimum break durations to prevent staff from clocking back into their shifts too early on the online rostering system. Many industry awards specify the minimum length of a break on the staff roster app, and staff clocking back in on the staff roster app even one minute early can lead to non-compliance. Tanda’s employee rostering software solution prevents staff from clocking off their break on our online staff roster until the minimum length has surpassed. Break rosters are always compliant.
