Free shift schedule template.
A one-week work schedule grid that does the one calculation a spreadsheet should: how many people are actually on, each day. Staff down the side, days across the top, shifts as start–end times – and a coverage-count row that tallies itself.
Free, no email required. Imports cleanly into Google Sheets via File → Import.
Who it's for
Any team that schedules a week at a time and works from a printed sheet or a shared file: a restaurant, a hotel desk, a clinic front office, a store. If your current schedule is a whiteboard photo in a group chat, this gives the same information a fixed structure.
How to use it
- Put one person per row, with their role next to their name.
- Enter shifts as start–end times, e.g. 7:00–15:00. Write OFF for a scheduled day off; leave blank if unscheduled.
- Watch the "On shift" row at the bottom – it counts who is on per day, so a zero under Saturday is visible before Saturday.
- Duplicate the sheet tab each week (or copy the file), update the "Week of" date, adjust.
When the template stops being enough
A spreadsheet shows the plan. It can't take a sick call at 6 am, or let a coworker claim the empty Saturday shift from their phone. When the template no longer covers what the week needs, Schedio imports this exact grid from a CSV – your roster and a typical week land in a live dashboard with coverage, swaps and hand-off notes, at $49 a month per location.
