HotSchedules
Scheduling & team management platform for hospitality businesses
HotSchedules is Fourth's workforce management product for restaurants and hospitality operators, covering scheduling, labor cost control, compliance, and staff pay. It builds schedules from sales and labor data, uses predictive insights to match staffing to demand, and includes compliance tools such as predictive scheduling, labor law alerts, and built-in reporting. Tip payouts and earned wage access let staff receive digital tips and early access to earned wages after shifts.
The platform also covers payroll, taxes, HR, recruiting, and onboarding, with mobile access for managers and staff. It integrates with POS systems including PAR POS, Toast, Oracle Micros, and NCR Aloha to sync sales and labor data in real time. Fourth iQ AI Forecasting and Fourth iQ App for Managers are available as part of the broader Fourth suite. HotSchedules is offered as a free plan alongside demo-based access, with regional availability in the US, EMEA, and APAC.
