People & training

A place for every person

Their details, their hours, their time off and what they are qualified to do — kept together, and kept current.

Training

Everyone knows where they are up to

  • Build slide-based courses once — text, images and video — or record an in-person session that happened on the floor.
  • Staff work through them on their phone between covers, and pick up exactly where they left off.
  • Every course shows its state plainly: not started, in progress, or completed.
  • Optional assessments at the end, with a pass mark you set.

Certificates & credentials

Proof that does not live in a drawer

  • Passing a course issues a certificate automatically — the learner is notified in the app and by email.
  • Held credentials like First Aid sit alongside course certificates, with renewal dates in view before they lapse.
  • Turn a certificate on after someone has already finished and it back-fills next time they complete.

Compliance

The screen you want before an inspection

  • Record right-to-work, DBS, food-hygiene and first-aid checks against each person, with expiry dates and the evidence file attached.
  • One overview puts every person against every check you require — valid, expiring, expired or missing — so a gap is obvious at a glance.
  • Renewals surface quietly in the HR area as they fall due, never as a red alarm on anyone’s dashboard.
  • Set what your venue requires once, and “missing” becomes something miaHQ can actually tell you — not a gap you find out about too late.
  • Each person gets a secure document store too, sorted by category — and they can upload their own right-to-work or certificate for you to check, so the chasing goes both ways.

Time off

Leave that counts itself

  • Set each person’s annual allowance in days, and staff see what they have taken, booked and have left — worked out from a real ledger, not a spreadsheet.
  • Requests can be half-days, morning or afternoon, so a dentist’s appointment does not cost a whole day.
  • Set your working week and your public holidays once, and neither a weekend nor a bank holiday quietly eats into anyone’s allowance.
  • Unused days can roll into the next leave year up to a cap you choose — or not at all, if you would rather they did not.
  • Every request is checked against the rota for clashes before it is even sent.

Team files

One place per person

  • Their details, their areas, the jobs they do and the hours they have worked — together, not spread across four systems.
  • Invite by email and they get their own secure login in a couple of clicks.
  • Roles decide what each person sees, so staff get their own hours and nothing else.
