When a guard calls in sick, the clock is already ticking.

Every missed post creates liability. Missed check-ins, contract penalties, and frustrated clients all begin with one unfilled shift.

Yet most security teams still rely on dispatch phone trees, reply-all texts, and inconvenient scrambling to stay staffed.

Shiftn automates call-outs, shift offers, and coverage updates so every site stays protected, even when plans change.

Why Security Companies Choose Shiftn

Security staffing isn’t just scheduling, it’s contractual compliance, liability management, and client trust. A single missed post can cost thousands and damage reputation.

Most scheduling systems only reorganize the spreadsheet.
Shiftn removes the panic and makes sure every site stays covered without late-night scrambling.

How Shiftn Works For Security

Shiftn does not replace your schedule. It makes it self-maintaining. Sick-calls, shift offers, and post coverage updates all happen automatically, before a site ever goes unstaffed.

Here is what automated calm looks like in real life:

1️⃣ A guard texts “I’m sick.”

Shiftn logs it instantly, marks them unavailable, and triggers post coverage outreach.

2️⃣ Eligible guards receive a targeted offer.

Only licensed and available guards receive the message. No reply-all chaos.

3️⃣ The first “YES” wins the shift.

Shiftn assigns coverage automatically and prevents double booking.

4️⃣ Your schedule updates itself.

Coverage is confirmed. No phone tag. No manual cleanup.

5️⃣ The result:

Every site stays covered. No scrambling. No contract risk. No hoping someone answers the phone.
