Staff Management for Crews Who Move Between Four Sites a Week
Staff management in Landscaping Management System covers crew schedules, jobs assigned by site, and attendance marked where the work happens. A project manager can see who is free on Wednesday before promising a client a team. Hours land against the project. Labour cost becomes part of what that garden earned.
Who is on which site
A gardening crew rarely stays on one property for a month.
Schedule by site and day
Crews are placed against sites for the week, and a change made on Tuesday is visible to everyone before the van leaves.
Tasks reach the crew lead
Each crew lead opens the tasks for that site on a phone, with the checklist for the stage they are on.
Clashes surface early
When two sites want the same four men on Friday, you know on Monday.
Attendance without the muster book
Paper rolls reach the office a week late. Sometimes they never arrive.
Marked on site
Attendance is recorded at the garden against the job, rather than copied into a register that evening.
Person, date and place
The record holds who worked where and when, which settles most wage arguments before they get going.
Hours feed the project
Crew hours by site go into project reporting beside material use and the original estimate.
What an owner watches on Monday
Two questions come up every week. Is the team busy, and is the team paying for itself.
Output by crew
Tasks completed per crew and per project, so you can tell which team finishes planting and which keeps slipping.
Open days
Gaps on the schedule are the days maintenance visits can be sold into.
Photos as proof
Site photos uploaded by the crew sit against the task, useful when a client insists nobody came on Thursday.
Frequently asked questions
Does staff management run our payroll?
No. It holds attendance, hours and tasks by crew, and those figures go into whatever payroll or accounting you already use. Statutory payroll sits outside this product.
Can a gardener mark his own attendance?
That is your decision at set-up. Most companies let the crew lead mark the whole team, because one phone on site is simpler than eight.
Will staff management handle contract labour?
Yes, daily labour can be scheduled and marked present the same way as your own gardeners. They appear on the site record with the rest of the team.
