Visitor Attractions

No, we charge per staff member per month. So you can flex up and down during busy periods and quiet periods. Some months you may be charged for 100 staff and then if you have extra seasonal staff at Christmas you will be charged per additional staff member.

Yes. Role-based permissions allow managers to set rules for their specific departments which can differ to another department.

You can also separate documents, schedules and more by department.

We know visitor attractions often hire extra casual staff throughout the year. This is an area that we cater to specifically.

As well as having built-in recruitment for growing your team quickly, our onboarding step list automates that part of the hiring process for you. You can block staff from picking up shifts until they have completed their assigned checklist and passed any necessary training checks.

Visitor attendance at outdoor attractions fluctuates heavily based on the forecast. StaffSavvy helps operators stay agile while maintaining labor compliance:

• Short-Notice Shift Adjustments: Schedulers can quickly scale staffing levels up or down, sending automated notifications directly to casual staff via app or SMS if shifts need to be added, moved, or cancelled.

• If you have enough notice you can offer staff to drop overstaffed shifts using our ‘Shifts Off’ options.

• Fair Notice & Cancellation Rules: In our late 2026 release, the platform will track cancellation lead times and apply configured pay protection rules —ensuring your attraction remains compliant with new regulations coming in under the UK Employment Rights Bill.

Yes. StaffSavvy ties shift scheduling directly to its Training & Qualifications engine:

• Mandatory certifications (e.g., Ride Operator Sign-off, First Aid, Lifeguard Certification, or Harness Safety) can be set as hard prerequisites for specific shifts or locations.

• The system prevents un-certified or expired staff from being scheduled, bidding on open shifts, or clocking into restricted operational zones.

• Expiry warnings alert managers before a staff member’s qualification lapses, avoiding unexpected staffing gaps on key attractions.

StaffSavvy is designed for multi-outlet, multi-department environments:

• Department-Specific Rules: Set distinct scheduling rules, break policies, and overtime triggers for different teams (e.g., retail shop staff vs. ride operators vs. catering teams) under one unified system.

• Cross-Department Skill Tracking: Staff qualified to work in multiple outlets (such as both ticketing and food service) can seamlessly be scheduled across departments without creating duplicate profiles or timesheets.

For attractions scaling up for peak season (like summer surges or Halloween/Christmas events):

• Integrated Applicant Tracking & Onboarding: Manage high-volume recruitment directly through StaffSavvy, running automated pre-employment and right-to-work checks.

• Automated Digital Onboarding: Once hired, new seasonal workers automatically receive system portals to sign contracts, upload tax details, and complete required safety training modules before their first day on site.

StaffSavvy allows you to apply unique rules, pay scales, break requirements, and scheduling logic to each contract type while managing everyone through a single, unified interface. You can manage full-time core staff, seasonal workers, zero-hours teams, and casual staff simultaneously without manual workarounds.

If required can define minimum or target hours for salaried and hourly contracted staff, ensuring the roster builder prioritises their hours before opening remaining shifts to casual or flexible workers.

StaffSavvy Shift Deployments allow attraction managers to station staff members in specific zones, positions, or roles across a venue and move them around throughout their shift. Instead of just scheduling someone for a general "Front of House" shift, you can schedule them to work at the main entrance in the morning, move to a gallery or ride platform at mid-day, and cover a gift shop in the afternoon.
