Built-In Compliance from Forecast to Payroll
Unifocus is designed to ensure compliance at every stage of the labor lifecycle — from predictive planning to clock-out. Our rule engine allows you to configure the labor standards, legal limits, and agreements that apply to your property, brand, or region.
Enforced Automatically:
- Maximum shift lengths
- Minimum rest periods between shifts
- Daily and weekly overtime thresholds
- Meal and rest break rules
- Union agreements (CBAs), local labor laws, and hotel-specific policies
Align Scheduling with Service Expectations and Brand Guidelines
Configurable Labor Standards
Labor standards define how long a task should take, and how many team members should be on shift for a given workload. With Unifocus, these standards are fully configurable and embedded in your forecasts, schedules, and budgets.
Capabilities:
- Role- and task-based labor standards
- Dynamic standards tied to demand drivers (e.g., rooms cleaned per room type)
- Brand-wide or property-level flexibility
- Period-based updates (e.g., seasonal or post-opening changes)
Use Cases:
- Maintain front desk staffing minimums during peak arrival hours
- Adjust housekeeping labor based on stayover vs. checkout ratios
- Enforce standards for banquets, valet, spa, and more
Address Exceptions Before They Become Violations
