Make Employee Schedules

If you are a manager responsible for scheduling employees, you know how complex and tedious it can be to produce a timely work schedule. If you schedule too many hours, your profit margin suffers. Schedule too few hours, and your customers suffer. MakeSchedules.com was started in 2001 as a resource for managers. 

We are producers of Excel Scheduling Spreadsheets. Both products were designed by us, to meet the needs of a small business we owned. Now they are in use at thousands of businesses, large and small, all over the world.

We have two scheduling templates to address your needs.  Both spreadsheets help you manage wages as a percentage of income by estimating the cost of labor scheduled and comparing it against expected revenue.

Employee Scheduler for Excel works well for small business for making and printing weekly schedules. It also helps you manage wages as a percentage of projected revenues.

Employee Shift Scheduler for Excel allows you to easily make and print shift schedules.

And because Excel templates aren't the best solution for everyone, we have included listings and reviews of scheduling software  solutions that we think are worth your consideration. 

In the Resources section, you will find helpful articles, and a discussion forum where managers can discuss employee management issues and productive scheduling.
