Industry · Aviation & ground handling

Round-the-clock operations, rotating shifts and documentation that has to be in order

Ground handling runs when the aircraft land - including at five in the morning and between Christmas and New Year. Staffly plans the shifts, keeps track of certificates, and puts the plan on the crew's phone.

A published week in Staffly shift planning: eight employees with shifts across all seven days, 4/4 coverage each day and hours against contract per employee.
Shift planning

Stations, roles and round-the-clock cover

Departments become your stations or terminals, roles the functions a shift requires. Staffing demand is described per weekday, so nights and weekends have their own requirement.

  • Shifts crossing midnight are handled as one continuous interval
  • Staffing demand per station, weekday and function
  • Season windows for peak and holiday periods
  • Only employees with the right function are proposed for a shift
  • The 11-hour rest period and weekly ceiling appear as planning warnings

Replacements

When someone drops out at four in the morning

A sickness report immediately flags the shifts missing cover, and the replacement search shows only those who can lawfully take it - instead of a round of phone calls.

  • Reporting sick from the app updates the plan immediately
  • "Find replacement" automatically excludes those who cannot
  • Offer the shift to several people at once - first yes takes it
  • The planner sees in the dashboard which shifts need people
Staffly proposing a full week of shifts: 28 new shifts, 28 staffed, 0 that cannot be covered, with the reasoning behind each assignment.
Documentation

Certificates and papers gathered on the person

Certificates, driving licences, criminal record checks and other documents sit encrypted on the individual employee, so you can find them without digging through folders.

  • Documents per employee with type and date
  • Sensitive files encrypted on upload
  • CPR stored encrypted and revealed behind a click
  • Agreements sent for digital signing and stored signed
  • An audit log of who viewed and changed what

Why it fits ground handling

Shifts across midnight

A shift from 22:00 to 06:00 is one interval - not two half days.

Functions govern staffing

Only people with the right role can be put on the shift.

The app in their pocket

Crew are not at a computer - they have the plan on the phone.

Push on changes

If the shift changes, the employee is notified.

Confirm hours

After the shift the hours are confirmed in one tap.

A typical setup

Departments per station or terminal, roles per function, and a staffing demand describing a normal week - including nights and weekends. Employees get the app with their own shift plan, and the planner runs the week proposal on Friday and publishes once the gaps are closed. We set this up with you during the demo.
