Home Features Guard Scheduling

Guard scheduling that fills itself in

Plan cover across every client and site on one screen, roll last month's pattern forward with a click, and let qualified guards claim the shifts you cannot fill.

The daily reality

Most rotas are built twice — once properly, once in a panic

The first version takes days in a spreadsheet. The second version happens at 5am when somebody does not turn up, and it lives in a WhatsApp group nobody can search afterwards. Secure360 keeps both versions in one place, with a record of every change.

  • Changes propagateMove a shift and the timesheet, the payslip and the client invoice all follow it.
  • Nothing lives in a chatEvery assignment, change and cancellation is recorded against the shift.
Scheduling team building a guard rota together
What it does

Built for the way rotas actually get made

Drag-and-drop planner

Assign, move, copy and split shifts across sites and dates. Bulk-assign a whole week to a guard in a couple of clicks.

Patterns that auto-extend

Set up 4-on-4-off, fixed weekly or a custom cycle once. Secure360 keeps extending it so next month is already drafted.

Open shifts

Publish an uncovered shift to guards who are qualified, free and not barred from that site. First suitable acceptance takes it.

Declines with reasons

A guard declining from the app sends the shift straight back to the open pool and tells your scheduler why.

Pre-publish warnings

Double bookings, approved leave, expired SIA licences, missing qualifications and site bans, all flagged before anyone sees the rota.

Full shift history

Who assigned it, who changed it, who cancelled it and when — the answer to "we were never told" conversations.

Filling a gap

From "he's called in sick" to covered

1

Release the shift

One click turns the empty shift into an open shift on the schedule.

2

The right guards are asked

Secure360 filters out anyone on leave, already booked, unqualified or barred from that site.

3

They see it on the phone

Push and email reach every eligible guard at once — not one phone call at a time.

4

First acceptance wins

The shift is assigned, everyone else is updated, and the client's site contact is notified.
