Shift

Give every new hire a clear start

Onboarding and I-9, not scheduling or payroll. Employees complete paperwork, submit documents, and work through training from a phone. Managers see progress and follow up on what is missing across locations.

Paperwork, training, and a manager who can see what is missing

A crew member who quits in week two costs you the paperwork twice. Shift makes the first days clear for the employee and visible for the manager, then keeps the record.

  1. 01

    Survey-style onboarding

    A new hire flows through forms, documents, and signatures from a phone in one sitting, and comes back to it any time.

  2. 02

    Manager review

    Section 2 of the I-9 and every review step assigned to the manager, with what is missing visible per employee and per location.

  3. 03

    Training tasks

    Handbook acknowledgment, food-safety certificates, and training modules with completion tracked in the same list.

  4. 04

    Multi-location visibility

    Every location's onboarding status in one view, so the person who has to chase paperwork knows who and where.

  5. 05

    The complete record

    Employee records, document templates, and a detailed log of who did what and when, ready for any audit.

  6. 06

    Offboarding and corrective actions

    The workforce workflows that follow onboarding, in the same system, with the same manager view.

Compliance, handled

Legally-binding e-signatures

Capture signatures with a full evidence trail — IP, device, timestamp, and a tamper-evident hash.

I-9s, food-handler cards, and policy sign-offs are collected, verified, and stored automatically.
