Jax
Canvey Island, United Kingdom
What it is
Jax is workforce management software for UK businesses in security, construction, gyms, and leisure. For gyms, it manages staff rotas, attendance, shift cover, and recruitment; it is not designed for membership or class booking. Managers can build rotas with drag-and-drop scheduling, recurring patterns, multi-site scheduling, and shift swaps, with push notifications for staff. Employees can clock in and out through the app with GPS verification. Managers can review attendance across sites and timesheets, then export approved timesheets in standard formats compatible with payroll software. Recruitment tools cover role and shift postings, applicant tracking, document collection, qualification verification, and digital onboarding. For unfilled shifts, Jax can broadcast opportunities to connected suppliers and available temporary workers, then add confirmed workers to the rota and attendance system. Businesses can connect existing agency and supplier relationships. Jax is available on Android and iOS. Core costs £50 a month for up to 49 staff, with £8 per additional seat; Scale costs £100 a month for up to 1000 staff, with £0 per additional seat.
