Deputy is a workforce management platform built for shift-based care providers in the UK, helping simplify rotas, strengthen compliance, and reduce agency overspend.
Deputy’s scheduling software helps care providers build smarter, compliant rotas in minutes. Managers can quickly create shifts based on staff availability, skills and qualifications, ensure appropriate coverage levels, and spot gaps before they lead to costly agency spend. With real-time visibility of labour costs and an easy-to-use mobile app for shift swaps and updates, Deputy makes scheduling simpler, fairer and more efficient for both managers and frontline care teams.
Deputy’s HR software helps care providers manage their people processes with greater clarity and control. From onboarding and document management to leave tracking and compliance records, it centralises essential employee information in one secure place. This reduces admin, improves visibility across teams, and ensures managers have the accurate workforce data they need to support compliance and deliver consistent, high-quality care.
Deputy AI helps care providers build smarter rotas and make faster workforce decisions with confidence. By analysing scheduling patterns, staffing needs and labour data, it provides intelligent recommendations that reduce admin time, highlight potential compliance risks, and optimise shift coverage. The result is more efficient scheduling, better cost control, and more time for managers to focus on supporting their teams and delivering outstanding care.
Deputy Messaging gives care teams a simple, secure way to communicate in real time. Managers can send shift updates, announcements and important operational messages directly through the Deputy app, ensuring staff receive the right information at the right time. By centralising communication alongside rotas and time tracking, Deputy reduces miscommunication, improves coordination across shifts, and keeps everyone aligned in delivering consistent, high-quality care.

With clear, easy-to-read dashboards and reports, managers can track scheduled vs actual hours, monitor overtime, review absence trends, and identify opportunities to reduce agency reliance. By turning workforce data into actionable insights, Deputy helps care organisations make informed decisions that support compliance, control costs, and maintain safe staffing levels.
