The Roster system is an electronic tool used to manage safe staffing levels across the trust in order to deliver high quality patient care. The system used at LUHFT is HealthRoster provided by Allocate Software.
The system is used to record all shifts worked and absences linked to work time management and facilitates the pay of all enhanced duties such as; night & weekend enhancements, unsocial hours, overtime and on calls etc.
Managers and Roster Creators can access roster records for their teams on a unit by unit basis. Amongst other things they can roster off duty for their teams, run auto rosters if applicable patterns and demand templates allow, approve annual leave, record absences, send shifts for bank fill and adjust shift times. The HealthRoster system can be accessed by clicking here.
Staff can access their own roster records via Employee On Line (EOL) and submit shift requests, leave request and view their off duty. EOL can be accessed by clicking here.
