Labor Scheduling
Dollars to donuts, most restaurateurs will probably agree that labor management is the most demanding aspect of foodservice operations.
At Squirrel, we definitely get that. Our Labor Cost and Productivity module is a complete solution, designed to ease unrelenting labor management tasks.

Simplified Scheduling and Punch Control
Take scheduling and punch control, for example. This module allows you to produce staffing schedules quickly and easily.
The system also prevents staff from punching in earlier, or punching out later, than the parameters that you have set within the system. Result? Unauthorized overtime is impossible, reducing the headaches of controlling labor costs.
Take punch recording a step further, and export data to your payroll program.
Versatile Employee Configuration
Employees may be assigned multiple jobs and job categories, with varying pay rates, with assured payroll accuracy.
Set up new employees quickly at the POS Terminal, with only minimal information, and let them punch in and out immediately. Additional data may be added at any time.
Flexible Set-up Options
Squirrel gives individual restaurants the choice of whether or not to require employees to enter their tips into the terminal prior to punch-out. The labor cycle can be defined to complement any accounting program. Flexible time periods and departments ensure reports are relevant, and therefore useful.
Comprehensive Reports
Squirrel’s real-time database allows a user to extract sales and productivity reports at any time. Configurable detailed reports compare Labor Hours and Dollars to Sales or Customers. You’ll make better decisions that take the guesswork out of scheduling.
Good staff relations are facilitated by providing each employee with a printed slip showing his or her hours for the day. If requested, an employee may also receive a listing of total time worked for the current period. A manager with appropriate security set-up is easily able to correct any punch errors.
