RosterzenUse Australian roster terminology
The product works around rosters and shifts, while the same underlying scheduling model also serves teams that call it employee scheduling.

Employee rostering software for Australian teams
Rosterzen turns your shift requirements and worker rules into a roster, then shows anything that still cannot be covered.

Open shifts stay visible when nobody can be assigned without breaking a rule.
Configure your own rules
Set the hours, rest and eligibility rules your organisation needs rather than assuming one award or agreement.
Keep gaps visible
If the available workforce cannot meet the roster without breaking a rule, Rosterzen shows the open coverage.

Generate and review
Rosterzen builds the roster and highlights anything still open.
Healthcare and aged care rostering
For an Australian healthcare or aged care pilot, use the service’s approved role mix, facility eligibility, part-time availability and night cover. Test an absence affecting a qualified role and review the remaining gap alongside the total people assigned.
Keep working limits and payroll requirements separate in the evaluation. Rosterzen generates assignments against the scheduling settings you supply. Confirm award interpretation, pay calculations and clinical staffing decisions through the appropriate service processes.
Built for rostering, not one Australian industry
Australian teams use rostering software across hospitality, retail, healthcare, security, logistics, manufacturing and many other shift-based workplaces. Rosterzen is industry-neutral, so you can model your own roles, locations and coverage requirements rather than buying a vertical-specific system.
It is especially useful when the roster depends on more than availability: skills, site eligibility, hours, rest and minimum staffing can all affect who can take a shift.
- Multi-location rosters
- Role and qualification coverage
- Availability and leave
- Reasons a shift is open
Award and agreement rules still need the right setup
Rosterzen can enforce working limits you configure, but it does not decide which Modern Award, enterprise agreement or employment condition applies. The organisation remains responsible for setting the correct rules and verifying its compliance obligations.
The workflow in plain terms
Rostering software organises staff assignments from the shifts an operation needs covered. Rosterzen uses availability, qualifications, location eligibility and configured working limits to generate a roster and show open coverage.
What to check in a pilot
Choose a week with an ordinary shift, a qualified duty and a planned absence. Review the required role mix and the worker’s combined hours across assignments. Keep employment-rule selection and approval with the person responsible for your organisation’s policy.

Frequently asked questions
Is rostering software the same as employee scheduling software?
Yes. Rostering is the common Australian term for assigning employees to shifts and coverage requirements.
Does Rosterzen calculate Australian award rates?
Rosterzen is focused on scheduling and time & attendance. Do not rely on it to interpret award coverage or calculate award pay unless that functionality is explicitly included in your implementation.
Can Rosterzen schedule across several sites?
Yes. You can choose which locations each worker can cover, and Rosterzen uses that when creating the schedule.
