When I Work is the intuitive spa employee software built to keep your team in sync. Coordinate shifts across multiple locations, track hours at the chair or in the treatment room, and manage your salon staff rostering software from a single central dashboard.
It’s trusted by salons and spas to manage daily shifts and simplify operations.

Manage your salon and spa teams
Coordinate stylists and spa therapists without the back-and-forth
Stop relying on text chains and paper logs. As salon worker software built for real-world service environments, When I Work helps you assign the right stylists to the right chairs while keeping schedules, swaps, and coverage in one place. When you publish a new roster, your team is notified through the spa employees management app, where they can confirm shifts so you know they’ve seen the schedule.
Last-minute callouts don’t have to derail your day. Use salon staff rostering software to fill gaps quickly with OpenShifts or let your team handle their own swaps with manager approval. By moving away from manual spreadsheets to a dedicated spa scheduling program, you can save up to 15 hours a week on administration and focus back on your clients.

Salon and spa staff time clock and timesheets
Accurate time tracking from the chair to the paycheck
Manual punch cards and paper timesheets lead to payroll mistakes. When I Work provides spa employee management software that turns any tablet or phone into a professional time clock. Stylists and therapists can clock in for shifts, log breaks, and request time off directly from the app, ensuring your records are always audit-ready.
Improve your spa time management with real-time visibility into who’s on the floor and which rooms are active. With hours flowing directly from the time clock into our spa payroll software integrations, you eliminate manual entry errors and end-of-week admin headaches. Plus, built-in overtime tracking notifies you before labor costs exceed your budget, protecting your spa’s margins.

Maintaining consistent service levels is difficult when your team is spread across different branches or treatment centers. Spa employee management software allows you to share eligible staff across all your locations to maximize shift coverage and eliminate gaps during peak booking hours.
By using dedicated job sites, you provide your team with the specific location data, entry instructions, and station assignments they need to arrive prepared. The centralized job site view within our spa employee software gives managers total visibility: see exactly who is working at each chair or spa location in real time. It all allows for smarter spa time management, ensuring you have the right specialists in the right place to meet client demand without overstaffing.
Salon and spa employee team messaging
Professional team chat for connected spa workplaces
Ditch the scattered texts. When I Work is the spa employees’ management app that centralizes communication on one secure platform. Message spa therapists one-on-one about client needs, coordinate group chats for bridal party service providers, or send blast announcements to your entire staff instantly.
Protect stylists’ privacy by communicating without sharing personal phone numbers. Because messaging is tied to your salon staff rostering software, schedule updates reach the right people at the right time. It’s the simplest way to improve spa time management and keep your team informed without the noise of personal group chats.
