Task management software for UK shift workers — coming soon
Right now, task assignment for most UK teams lives in texts, WhatsApp groups, and sticky notes. Soon it'll be inside your rota — attached to shifts, tracked to completion, visible to managers in real time.
Shift task management for UK businesses — what's coming
Shift workers shouldn't need three apps to know what they're supposed to do today. We're building task management into RosterElf so UK managers can assign, track, and close out tasks from the same platform they already use for rotas and timesheets.
No more "did that get done?" moments
Create tasks and assign them to specific employees or roles. Set due dates, priorities, and attach them to shifts or sites.
Staff know what's needed, the moment it's assigned
Staff receive push notifications when tasks are assigned. Managers get notified when tasks are completed — no chasing required.
Clock in, see your tasks
Attach tasks to specific shifts so staff know exactly what needs doing when they clock in — opening checklists, closing procedures, and more.
Full visibility on what's done and what isn't
See who completed what and when. Track task history and maintain accountability across your entire UK team.
Rota and tasks in one app
Staff view and complete tasks from the same app they use for their rota and time tracking — one app for everything.
Set routine duties once, never chase them again
Set up daily, weekly, or monthly recurring tasks that automatically assign to the right people — perfect for routine duties.
