Setup & Configuration

Using the Wageloch Staff Portal and Mobile App can encourage staff to be proactive in requesting leave, submitting shift availability and viewing their rosters. They can view the rosters you publish, receive notifications of any changes and if you allow, they can view their team members’ rosters as well.

Staff Portal refers to the website staff can access from a computer, which is https://portal.wageloch.com.au, whereas the Mobile App refers to the Wageloch Mobile App application which is available for download from either to Google Play store (Android), or the App Store (Apple).

The best part? The Staff Portal and Mobile App is included in your Wageloch subscription, so there are no additional costs.

There are many benefits and customization in how the Portal/App behaves for staff, and what they can see/do.

• Staff can just view only their rosters, and nothing else.
• Staff can view their rosters and submit leave if they’re entitled.
• Staff can view their roster, everyone else’s roster, submit leave and availability.

You’re able to enable/disable features at your discretion.

Should you have any questions or concerns, please don't hesitate to contact Helpdesk for assistance.

Security

In the Security area, you are able to set a staff member to gain additional permission in the Wageloch Mobile App and Staff Portal, while provide access to a Shift Swap function and Message Centre in the Wageloch Mobile App. This does not allow the user to see any dollar figures or similar administrative access.
