Free online Shift roster for School Covid Screening

Post date: 2021-08-02 21:16:36

At our school, all teachers have to 'volunteer' for early morning screening of staff and students (our government wont pay for someone to do this, so it's up to us). It's become an eternal stressful bun fight due to the usual stuff: people not putting their names down, or not pitching. And then there's the tatty paper based list which circulates around the school, getting lost and scrawled on. I'm thinking an online shift roster might help, if it can do the following:

- be free (we have no budget for this)
- run inside Google Workspace or sync with it. Not essential, but we use Workspace for other stuff and all staff email contact details are already in the contact list
- Have constraints such as:
-- can't overwrite/delete someone else's shift input
-- will ask you to input a certain number of shifts during certain times
e.g. 1x 6.30am shift + 1x 7.00am shift
e.g. 2x 6.30am shift OR 3x 7.00am shift
-- send notification if shift has not been filled in
-- send reminders

If we can find something user friendly and easy to set up it could be useful for a bunch of other stuff as well.
