The Shifta scheduling calendar

Across Switzerland, they trust us

Before, it was sheets of paper pinned behind a door. Now the staff organise themselves and swap their shifts. For me, it means far fewer hours spent on schedules.

How Shifta handles a pharmacy week

Real product surfaces, shown on a pharmacy week.

Scheduling

Every opening hour covered

You see at a glance who is available each day, at the counter and in compounding. Drag a shift from one day to another or from one person to another, then publish: the whole team gets the schedule.

Labour Act

The Labour Act, checked even on duty nights

Switch on the Labour Act, and Shifta flags on the schedule whatever falls outside the rules, even around an evening or Sunday duty. A warning, never a block.

Time & attendance

A record of hours kept day by day

The team clocks in or logs hours in the app, next to the schedule. The record the law asks for builds up with no extra entry.

Balances

Part-time balances, kept up to date

Every contract, however small, gets its own balances: hours, holidays, public holidays and rest days, kept week after week.

Mobile apps

The schedule on everyone's phone

When you publish, everyone gets a notification and sees their hours in the iOS or Android app. Someone off at the counter? Post an open shift: whoever is free claims it, and you confirm.

Absences & swaps

Holidays and swaps, as requests

A holiday request lists the shifts already planned on those days; a swap flags a double booking or approved leave. You decide with the week in front of you.

Why Shifta

You shouldn't pay for software you only half use.

Most scheduling tools are built for chains, with menus no small team ever opens. Shifta is built in Switzerland for small teams: the essentials, done properly, in your language.

01

Only what you need

Every feature earns its place on the screen. Standard to schedule, Pro when your team needs everything else.

02

Anchored in Switzerland

Prices in CHF, the app in English, French and German, your data hosted in the EU. Built around how Swiss SMEs actually work.

03

Responsive, local support

Write to us and the team that builds Shifta, here in Switzerland, answers, usually the same day. Your feedback shapes the product directly.

FAQ

Pharmacy scheduling questions

Common questions about scheduling your team with Shifta. Can't find what you're after? We're happy to help.

Can I see whether every hour is covered?

The week is planned on one grid with every role visible, so you check the cover before you publish, not after.

How are absences handled?

Time off is requested in the app and you approve it with the whole week in view, so a gap never appears unnoticed.

Does Shifta track worked hours?

The team logs their hours in the app, and they appear next to the planned hours. Switzerland expects employers to keep a record of hours worked, and that record builds itself.

We run several branches. Does that work?

Yes. Each branch has its own schedule and team under one account, and you switch between them in a tap.

Can I try Shifta for free?

Yes, for 14 days, with every Pro feature and no credit card. After that, Standard covers scheduling for a single pharmacy of up to ten people at CHF 29.90 per month, and Pro adds time tracking, analytics and several branches for CHF 39.90.
