Common questions
Does kardia handle split shifts?
Yes. You can plan two separate shifts in one day (e.g. 11:30–14:30 and 18:00–23:00). kardia tracks them as two entries and enforces the minimum rest gap between them per ArbZG.
What about the ArbZG 11-hour rest between shifts?
kardia enforces the 11-hour rest period required by the German Arbeitszeitgesetz on every plan. If you try to schedule a shift that breaks it, the planner warns you before publishing.
Can I roll a template across the whole month?
Yes. Build a weekly template and apply it across as many weeks as you need. Override specific days for holidays, events or sick leave.
