Scheduling Staff, Inc. (SSI) has officially launched their Internet-based staff scheduling website. Colin Taylor, CEO of SSI, commented, "Small business is the engine for growth in our economy and many small businesses must develop schedules for their staff. This can be an arduous task, when completed using spreadsheets.

Today small businesses and organizations can utilize the SSI website, to create, manage and distribute the staff schedules. Today organizations such as restaurants, hospitals, call centres, theatres and retail establishments can go on-line and gain many of the benefits and functionality that would have cost tens of thousands of dollars to purchase similar software.

Scheduling Staff has licensed technology from The Rota Company in the UK and customized the site to meet the needs of a broader audience. Today the SSI site allows users to create their own schedules, plan for vacations, operate numerous shifts, print and distribute schedules by email and even SMS, supports shift swapping and job skills and requirements. All of this can be completed for a nominal cost per staff scheduled per month. There is no fixed commitment and users get 60 days to trial the system before they begin to pay for it.

"Simply put, there is not a similar web based product on the market today that has the level of completeness and offers as many functions and capabilities of SchedulingStaff.com," said Taylor. The initial demand has been very good, said Taylor, "we have seen over 9,500 page views and have more than 600 users who have set up trial schedules on the site."

Scheduling Staff Inc. (www.schedulingstaff.com) is an Ajax, Canada-based company that provides workforce management solutions to clients via the Internet. Scheduling Staff, Inc. can be reached by phone at may be reached at 905-426-5055.
