Free weekly employee schedule template
A simple worker-by-day spreadsheet for teams that aren't ready to move off a spreadsheet yet — with an example week already filled in.
Download the CSV templateWhat's in the template
A CSV file (opens in Excel, Google Sheets, or Numbers) with one row per worker and one column per day of the week, prefilled with a three-worker example schedule so you can see the format before replacing it with your own team.
Supported file format
Comma-separated values (.csv) — the most portable spreadsheet format, opens in any spreadsheet application without needing a specific version.
How to use it
- Download the CSV and open it in your spreadsheet application of choice.
- Replace the example rows with your own workers and roles.
- Fill in each worker's shift times for the week, or mark the day "OFF".
- Share the file with your team, or print it for the break room.
Limitations of spreadsheet scheduling
A spreadsheet doesn't notify anyone when it changes, doesn't track who's available, and can't confirm a worker actually saw their shift. It's a fine starting point for a team of two or three; past that, most teams end up wanting the notifications and confirmations a spreadsheet can't give them.
