FEATURES
Everything the schedule needs to defend itself.
GrievanceFree isn’t a calendar with your logo on it. Every capability exists to enforce your collective bargaining agreement the way it’s written — and to leave a paper trail behind every decision.
THE CASCADE
One person out. The whole line re-solves.
Rest periods and max hours are hard constraints. The engine will leave a post open before it will violate one.
THE FULL PANEL
Built for the way union plants actually run.
Seniority enforcement
Rank order is applied identically on every run — no favorites, no oversights. The engine reads your seniority list and honors it the same way at 5 a.m. as it does at noon.
Lines of progression & cascade
When a position opens, the next-qualified employee steps up and the vacancy cascades down the line — each move checked against seniority and your hard CBA constraints.
Overtime equalization
Overtime is balanced across the roster, and open OT goes out for volunteer signup before anyone is forced — then the equalization tally keeps everyone honest.
Vacation bidding
Time-off bids run through seniority windows and are honored automatically, with limits and waitlists you configure in the rules wizard.
Shift-swap marketplace
Employees post and pick up shifts themselves. Approved swaps survive the next regeneration instead of getting wiped when the schedule is rebuilt.
Call-in management
The optional call-in add-on logs the absence, and the cascade fills the hole automatically — the line of progression does the work the supervisor used to do by phone.
Shop-floor kiosk
A no-login kiosk puts the schedule, overtime signups, time-off requests, and swaps on the floor — no personal phone required to see your week.
Every assignment shows its why
Each cell keeps a reasoning trace: who ranked where, which rule applied, who was skipped and why. When a grievance comes up, you bring the receipt.
