Improved Compliance

  • StaffSavvy combines HR tools and right-to-work compliance to create a central shift, payroll and training hub for any student union.

  • Prevent unqualified or undocumented staff from taking shifts, reducing management time spent on spot checks and admin.

  • Staff are responsible for providing their compliance details and documentation and are given clear guidance on what documents they need to provide.

  • The system knows when every document or qualification expires, and staff are automatically reminded ahead of time to provide new documents.

More control, means more engagement

Tailor your communications to staff who need to know, when they need to know. Is there an event change, an available shift, a new policy? Just send a message to the relevant staff who work in that area.

With staff changing often we make it easier for you to keep track of who needs what, when.

Different Departments, Different Rules

Many of our Student Unions love that they can different sets of rules for each of their departments. One doesn’t always work like the others and that’s why we built StaffSavvy this way.

    UNICUS - The University of Sheffield

“StaffSavvy has been a great platform for informing a large casual team of SU updates. Using the News system, we’ve bettered our previous form of printing out news and sticking it on notice boards, or being reliant on managers to tell their staff things on Facebook.

We’ve seen a noticeable uplift in engagement with our student staff which in turn has helped shape some staff events and increase staff engagement with some of our democratic activities such as Officer elections.”
