Case Study: Phoenix Zoo streamlines animal and staff scheduling with WhenToWork

Phoenix Zoo schedules 200+ animals with WhenToWork

Phoenix Zoo, a long-time user of the WhenToWork employee scheduling service, faced a uniquely complex challenge. In their education department, they needed to schedule not only human staff but also over 200 animal "workers," including mammals, birds, and reptiles. This required managing individual usage limits, feeding schedules, veterinary appointments, and behavioral considerations, a task that was overwhelming to handle with traditional documents.

By applying the WhenToWork system innovatively, the zoo found a powerful solution. They used the platform to set preferences and usage limits for each animal, block out time for shedding or vet visits, and ensure their psychological well-being. WhenToWork provided the Phoenix Zoo with an efficient and easy-to-use system to tame their beastly scheduling situation, bringing unprecedented organization to their unique operational needs.
