Every site scheduled cleanly.
Klacks assigns sites and changing teams efficiently — with a configurable night window between midnight and 6am and Sunday working shown as separately reported hours for your payroll. Routes are optimised automatically at the same time.
Note on the sample data: All names, places (for example Winterthur), addresses and figures in these recordings are fictitious demo data with a Swiss background, written in Latin script. They only illustrate the product – you do not need to know or be able to read them. In your own installation you enter your own data, and the interface is multilingual.
ERO rates, the night window and Sunday working
ERO minimum wage rises at the new year
The Employment Regulation Order of the Contract Cleaning Industry Joint Labour Committee (S.I. No. 430/2025) raises the minimum wage from €14.10 (from 17 October 2025) to €14.80 per hour from 1 January 2026.
Night allowance between midnight and 6am
The €1.00-per-hour allowance applies to work between 00:00 and 06:00, provided at least 3 hours are worked within that window — from 1 January 2026, that comes to €15.80 per hour.
Sunday working at double rate
Sunday work is paid at double the hourly rate — €29.60 per hour from 1 January 2026. With changing sites and teams, that's error-prone by hand.
Your finished shift plan in three steps
Install
Klacks is installed on your own infrastructure — via Docker; allow about half an hour for the first start.
Adjust rules
Public holidays and rest periods come preconfigured for your country, surcharges where defined for your country — and you can adjust them anytime.
Plan automatically
Klacks builds shift plans, flags conflicts and optimizes routes — with an AI assistant if you want.
How Klacks takes the load off facility services in Ireland
From optimised routes to the reported night window — it all fits together.
Site routes optimised
Klacks sequences sites so that journeys stay short — whether by car, bike or on foot.
ERO rates stay in payroll
Klacks does not calculate the ERO minimum wage of €14.80 per hour from 1 January 2026 — Klacks provides your payroll with the planned hours as a basis, and you maintain the rates there.
Configurable night window
The night window between 00:00 and 06:00 can be configured, and Klacks reports the hours worked within it. Your payroll applies the allowance of €1.00 per hour, including the condition of at least 3 hours in this window — Klacks does not calculate any monetary amounts.
Sunday working reported
Klacks automatically recognises Sunday shifts and reports them; your payroll applies the double hourly rate (€29.60 per hour from 1 January 2026).
Installed on your premises: data stored on your servers
Klacks runs on your own infrastructure — staff data is stored on your servers, and with a locally hosted AI model, no AI request goes to an external AI provider.
Klacksy understands your request
"Schedule the sites in the North district for tomorrow morning" is enough — Klacksy starts the planning, Klacks optimises the route and team.
What Klacks can do — in real recordings
Short videos from the running app, sorted by topic. Choose a chapter; only the video of the open chapter ever plays.

- Klacksy helps you get it right in every one of these cases: describe your rule in the chat in your own words, for example “Sundays earn a 50% surcharge.” — Klacksy asks follow-up questions, shows a preview and only saves once you confirm.
- Klacksy also creates scenarios and starts planning inside them — tell it in the chat, for example: “Plan Winterthur from November 2 to 8.”
- Klacksy, the built-in AI assistant, can also do all of this for you on request — for example, tell it in the chat: “Add expenses of 24.50 for Mia on October 6.”
Uniform nationwide, split at the border
The Republic of Ireland has no public holidays at county or municipal level: all statutory holidays apply uniformly nationwide under the Organisation of Working Time Act 1997. For businesses with ties to Northern Ireland, though, what applies across the border still matters — a completely separate holiday regime is in force there.
- No patchwork within Ireland itselfUnlike many other countries, the Republic of Ireland has no public holidays at county or municipal level — the Organisation of Working Time Act 1997 sets all statutory holidays uniformly nationwide. Northern Ireland, as part of the United Kingdom, has an entirely separate regime.
- Combining the Republic and Northern IrelandA business in the border region — say, in Dundalk (County Louth) or Letterkenny (County Donegal) — or with locations in Dublin and Belfast keeps both calendars side by side: St. Brigid's Day (the first Monday in February) and the June bank holiday in the Republic, Orangemen's Day (12 July) in Northern Ireland.
- Active or informational onlyYou decide per calendar whether a holiday affects hours & surcharges — or simply appears as a reminder.
It all comes down to the settings
Klacks offers countless ways to calculate rules and hour credits for nights, weekends, public holidays and overtime — exactly the way your contracts and company agreements require.
- Nights and weekends You set the night window and the surcharge rates yourself, and choose up to three weekend days — as a multiplier that is added to the hours worked as a time credit in hours.
- Public holidays and overtime A separate public-holiday rate, and overtime per day or per week in up to three tiers. When several surcharges fall on the same hour, the highest one applies — or all of them add up.
- Your own calculation with a macro If that is not enough, a macro does the maths: a short script using weekday, time of day, public holidays and contract values — with conditions, loops and functions of your own.
- Scheduling rules Rest periods, maximum daily and weekly hours, consecutive working days, free Sundays or hour caps per period — each one as a warning or, in automatic planning, as a block.
Rule violations: Klacks warns you instantly
Klacks flags time collisions, rest periods that are too short, too many consecutive working days and work on holidays right as you plan — as an error or warning in the error list.
