Manage day labourers: arrivals, days and payments

In Weplanify, follow the workers paid by the day: need announced, arrivals on site, validated day, then payment in cash or by mobile money too.

In Weplanify, a day labourer is a person paid by the day, without an employee contract. The Day labourers screen (Time menu) follows each site, day after day.

Steps

  1. The day before, announce the need with Plan tomorrow.
  2. In the morning, the site manager records the arrivals on their phone, or the office adds them.
  3. In the evening, they finish the day: departures and absentees.
  4. Validate the day: amounts are frozen and it moves to To pay.
  5. Pay one or several days and record the payment.
