Shiftsflux drafts the schedule, fills the open shift, catches the payroll anomaly and explains the paycheck. Every output carries the rule it applied and the person who approved it.
Shiftsflux is an HCM, workforce and payroll system for multi-location quick-service chains, built from the ground up for agents rather than retrofitted with a chatbot.
Each agent holds its own account, calls a fixed set of tools, and appears as the actor on every record it touches. When a coach asks who did this, the answer is a name.
Anything that can cost someone a wage runs on versioned, effective-dated rules. Models draft, rank and explain. They never decide, and if one is down the kiosk still records the hour.
Own account, own rights, own line in the audit log. Never a borrowed session.
Agents call the same typed operations the interface calls. Nothing scrapes a page.
Wage and hour law lives in versioned records the server and the kiosk read identically.
Inputs and rule versions are stored beside the output. A score with no reason never ships.
Crew, minor crew, shift lead, store manager, regional coach, HR, payroll, compliance, recruiter, trainer, franchise finance, IT and an external auditor each get their own screens and their own data scope. Click the screen itself to advance.
An agent here is not a chat box bolted onto a report. Below, what each one actually delivers, the inputs it used, and the authority it holds.

Government enforcement disclosures, a randomized field experiment and published research. The five findings that decided how this product works are below. Tap any figure for its method, its caveat and what the system does about it, or switch to everything we checked.
Where a widely quoted industry figure could not be traced to a primary source, it is left off this page. Correlational findings are labelled as such.
{{ openFact.detail }}
Crew, shift lead, store manager, regional coach, HR, payroll, compliance, recruiting, training, finance, IT and the external auditor each get the screen they need, scoped to the data they are allowed to see.
The kiosk offers only the legally allowed next action, computed on the device. It keeps punching through a full shift without wifi and replays without duplicates.
A quarter-hour grid under a labor budget. Publishing writes an immutable version, and an edit after publish prices the predictability pay before you confirm it.
Wage, break, overtime, scheduling and minor rules are effective-dated records with citations. Ask what was live in a store on a past date and get an answer.
Hours, overtime and premiums post as itemized rows with the pay rate snapshotted on the date of the violation, so a payslip can be explained line by line.
Openings, applicants, offers, onboarding checklists, station certifications with expiry dates, transfers that re-resolve jurisdiction, and final pay timed to the state's rule.
Labor cost per store and hour, penalty exposure by city and month, an editable permission matrix, and a read-only view-as mode showing exactly what anyone sees.
How the agents are constrained, what crew sign in with, and what happens when something is down.
