persoo for Catering & hospitality
Every event needs a different team: sometimes eight servers and two at the bar, sometimes kitchen and dishwashing for 300 guests. With persoo you plan per job, your temps accept shifts themselves — and the hours go into payroll at the right rate.

Sound familiar?
In catering, short notice is normal — and every event is different. Instead of phoning half your contact list, you post the slots and your temps apply themselves.
Your benefits
From a single evening to weekly planning in a restaurant.
Positions such as service, bar, kitchen, dishwashing and logistics with the number of slots — every event exactly as it was booked.
For restaurants, canteens or hotel banquets: copy one day to up to 60 dates, with absences and preferred times already taken into account.
Server, team lead, cook: every shift has its pay group. Anyone who can do both gets the right rate for each assignment — fixed when the slot is confirmed.
Your staff upload their health certificate and other documents to their profile themselves. They sign instructions and contracts as PDFs right on their phone.
Address with map link, meeting point, on-site contact and details such as the dress code — automatically the evening before, at the time you set.
Actual times, breaks and no-shows per shift. Then payroll sheets per person and a DATEV export (LODAS) for your tax adviser.
A real-world example
Example: a caterer runs a wedding at a country estate — service, bar, kitchen and dishwashing, set-up from 14:00.
The template “Wedding up to 150 guests” brings positions, shifts and slots with it. Choose the venue and client, adjust the times.
The slots go to everyone with “Service” or “Bar” as a skill. Whoever has time applies — you accept the best fit.
Everyone confirmed gets the briefing: Gut Ellerhof, 14:00 meeting point at the farmyard, black trousers, white shirt, contact person Jana.
Check-in by QR code at the staff entrance or time tracking by the team lead. At the end of the month, the payroll sheets for all events.
Cost in this example: 13 confirmed slots × €0.25 = €3.25 net · with 12 such events a month, around €39 net
Long evenings
Anyone serving until two in the morning shouldn’t be in the canteen at eight. persoo shows warnings when you fill a slot — you decide.

Yes, if you plan with temps who accept shifts themselves: set up the week once, copy the days, and absences and preferred times feed into the suggestions. persoo is not built for a rigid rota with permanent employees.
