STEPS

Steps to manage labor costs

1

Dealing with uncertainty and varying future situations quickly becomes an nearly impossible task. With OnShift you minimize the inefficiency of manual calculations by integrating our API and start creating “what-if” scenarios. Consider multiple factors, such as the costs associated with new hires and with over- or understaffing in relation to staffing needs, and calculate the required workforce capacity for each week of the budgeted timeframe.

2

With a clear picture of future staffing levels, you can then assemble an ideal workforce; one that is optimized to reduce unnecessary staffing costs, minimize missed commercial opportunities and manage fluctuations in staffing levels. In addition to building the ideal workforce, you dramatically speed up the staff budgeting process.

How to - Steps
Automatic scheduling

The process of automatic employee scheduling consists of two main phases: first, your shifts are created to produce a schedule and second, your employees are assigned to those shifts as efficiently as possible. These two phases deliver the most impact when they work together, but they can be successfully used separately, as well.

This can be a two-phased process by first publishing the optimal created shifts and then finding an appropriate employee to fill those shifts. Or it can be an integrated approach in which shifts are created and assigned at once.
