How it works

How staff planning works with Univents

A clear process – from shift plan to payroll export. All connected, no Excel, no duplicate work.

1

Plan shifts

Create shifts directly in the event or cross-event – with roles, times and tasks. Temps can apply themselves.

Clear responsibilities and fair distribution – no more follow-up questions.

2

Track time

Staff clock in digitally. Breaks, night and holiday bonuses are automatically accounted for.

Compliant time tracking without calculation errors or Excel lists.

3

Export payroll

All tracked times flow directly into labor costs and tax exports – including vacation and surcharges.

Accurate payroll in minutes instead of hours.

Shift planning – clear, flexible, integrated

Every shift in view – for every event, every team.

Plan all shifts centrally, whether for individual events or recurring assignments.

Casual staff can apply for open slots and responsibilities are immediately visible – no back-and-forth, no chaos.
