What is When I Work?
When I Work is a workforce management platform focused on employee scheduling, time and attendance tracking, and team communication for businesses with hourly staff. It offers auto-scheduling, shift templates, multi-location and multi-week scheduling, shift swapping and OpenShift coverage, GPS-enabled clock-ins, labor forecasting, and in-app team messaging. The platform integrates with payroll and POS systems and is used across industries like retail, hospitality, healthcare, and food service to reduce scheduling time and improve labor compliance.
Pricing is per user per month across three tiers: Essentials, Pro, and Premium, with each tier adding more advanced scheduling rules, reporting, role permissions, and integration capabilities such as API access, webhooks, and SAML/SSO. Time tracking and attendance can be added on top of any plan. When I Work offers a 14-day free trial with no credit card required, but does not offer a permanent free plan.
