Rearden's Bar, a popular entertainment venue in Cork City, Ireland, faced several operational challenges despite its success. With over 400 employees across nine locations, the management found scheduling to be a laborious task. The use of Excel for creating schedules was inefficient and time-consuming, especially with shared staff across different locations. Additionally, when staff booked time off, finding suitable replacements with the necessary experience was a significant challenge. The management also wanted to monitor staff time more accurately for better accountability and compliance. They needed a centralized system for storing all necessary documents for easy access when required. Furthermore, the manual entry of data for payroll often led to errors, causing recurring problems and dissatisfaction among employees due to incorrect pay.
