Sounds familiar?
The way it usually goes.
Teaching staff, office staff and drivers each follow different timings. The attendance register lives in the staff room, leave is a paper slip, and salaries are worked out from both at the end of the month. Notices go out on a WhatsApp group that half the staff has muted.
A register in the staff room
Attendance written by hand, then counted again at month-end.
Different timings for everyone
Teachers, office staff and drivers start and finish at different times.
Leave on paper slips
Slips get lost, and nobody knows how many days anyone has left.
Notices nobody reads
Important updates buried in a group chat half the staff has muted.

Can teaching and office staff have different timings?
Yes. Create a shift for each group — teaching, office, transport — and assign staff to it. Late marks and half-days follow each shift's own hours.
Can we publish our academic-year holidays?
Yes. Add your holiday list once and every staff member sees it in the app and the calendar.
Do staff need a computer?
No. Staff use the OthHR app on their own phone for check-ins, leave and payslips.
