Hospitality HR is 24/7 — managing rotating shifts, high turnover, seasonal peaks, multi-property teams, and gratuity compliance all at once. Dapplon is built for the pace of hospitality.
Hotels, restaurants, and F&B chains face HR challenges that general-purpose HR software simply was not built to handle.
Managing breakfast, lunch, dinner, and night shifts across FOH, BOH, and housekeeping teams is a scheduling puzzle that never ends. One absent staff member can cascade into a service breakdown.
Hospitality sees 60–80% annual attrition. You need fast hiring pipelines, quick onboarding for floor staff, and smooth offboarding — all running simultaneously at any given moment.
Gratuity provisioning, service charge distribution, tip pools — complex calculations prone to errors. Non-compliance with the Payment of Gratuity Act carries significant legal and financial risk.
Build rosters for every department — kitchen, service, housekeeping, front desk — using pre-built templates or your own shift patterns. Staff can request swaps, managers approve in one click, and attendance is captured automatically via QR code or biometric device.
With 60–80% annual attrition, your hiring pipeline needs to be always on. Dapplon ATS connects to hospitality job boards, supports bulk hiring for seasonal peaks, and gets new staff onboarded on their mobile before Day 1 — so they walk in ready to work.
Gratuity provisioning, service charge distribution, and tip pool calculations are handled automatically within Dapplon payroll. Every rupee is tracked, every distribution rule is configurable, and every payment is backed by a clear audit trail.
Manage HR across every hotel property or restaurant branch from one central platform. Each General Manager or Outlet Head sees only their own staff, while your central HR team has a consolidated view of headcount, attrition, payroll cost, and leave data across the entire portfolio.

Common questions from hospitality HR managers, F&B operators, and hotel group HR leads.
Yes. Dapplon includes purpose-built shift scheduling for hospitality — with templates for breakfast, lunch, dinner, and night shifts across FOH, BOH, and housekeeping. Managers can build department-specific rosters, enable staff-initiated shift swap requests (with approval flows), and receive alerts when a shift is understaffed. Attendance can be captured via QR code kiosks or biometric device integration.
Dapplon calculates gratuity automatically based on the Payment of Gratuity Act, 1972 formula — (15 × last drawn salary × years of service) / 26 — for all eligible employees. Provisions are set aside monthly, annual liability reports are generated for audit purposes, and payment deadlines trigger automated reminders to HR. Contractual and fixed-term staff are also tracked for gratuity eligibility.
Absolutely. Dapplon is built for hotel chains and multi-outlet F&B businesses. Each property or branch can be managed independently with property-level access controls, so the GM at each location sees only their staff. At the same time, the central HR team gets a consolidated view of headcount, attrition, payroll cost, and leave balances across all properties in a single dashboard.
Yes. Dapplon includes configurable service charge distribution rules — you can set distribution percentages by role (captain, server, support staff) and outlet type. Tip pool management is supported for restaurants that pool gratuities. All distributions are calculated automatically during payroll processing, with a clear breakdown on each employee's payslip.
Yes. Dapplon integrates with leading biometric attendance devices (ZKTeco, ESSL, Mantra) via the ZKBio SDK and API. QR code-based attendance is also supported — staff can check in and out using a mobile QR kiosk or a printed QR code at the property entrance. All attendance data syncs in real time to Dapplon for payroll and compliance purposes.
