Today’s article is for small-medium-sized manufacturers whose manual scheduling methods are not doing the job.
Paper-based employee scheduling techniques are:
- Tedious and inefficient
- Unable to quickly react to scheduling emergencies
- Prone to errors
- Not equipped to manage overtime
- Difficult to share with employees
In addition, workers need to go through a supervisor or HR department to obtain schedule, time card, and PTO information and it is cumbersome for employees to submit and obtain shift change approvals.
Imagine if your production equipment was this outdated, ineffective, and inefficient.
These problems impact everyone in the company:
- Owners overpay for labor, which reduces profit margins
- Owners lose money due to high employee attrition
- Owners are at risk of compliance violations
- Company misses production deadlines which threatens client contracts and business reputation
- Employees work more overtime than they want to
- Workers can’t view the schedule when they are not at work
- Employees have to go through a manager to request shift changes
- Short-handed shifts force employees on-the-clock to pick up the slack, which, in turn, often leads to employee burnout
- Scheduling managers spend so much time assembling schedules that they have little time for other critical tasks
- Scheduling managers can’t easily accommodate employee shift preferences
