In this daily work schedule template, you can add roles (Manager, Cashier, Host, etc.) and add employee names by role and hour. The template currently has a 12-hour shift, but you can change the hours in the first column or add hours by adding rows. Update role names in the top row. Print out the blank version of the template as a PDF to fill in the schedule by hand and post at work.
