How Smarter Scheduling Improves Employee Productivity

The Scheduling-Productivity Connection

Business owners and managers can dramatically increase productivity through smarter scheduling with TimeSimplicity from SwipeClock.

A Job Benefit For Your Employees (That Doesn’t Cost You Any More)

When employers respect their employees’ life outside of work by delivering flexible scheduling, team members are happier and more focused on their jobs.

Flexible Scheduling ROI

1) Engaged associates are more productive, and
2) Flexible scheduling reduces turnover which may be more costly than you realize.

“Scheduling … is having a huge effect on the bottom line. Increasing scheduling effectiveness offers a competitive edge that can make HR a budget hero.” Workforce management consultant Lisa Disselkamp

Scheduling Self-Service Provides Benefits for Management and Employees

TimeSimplicity has a virtual trade board which permits staff members to request a schedule change and pick up shifts without having to reach out to a manager.

With the Virtual Trade Board, supervisors can view and approve shift changes without having to contact team members. When a manager approves a shift change, TimeSimplicity automatically sends a notification to each affected employee.

When associates are trusted to handle their own schedule changes, they have increased job satisfaction and feel a greater ownership in the business which improves profitability in the ways mentioned previously and also minimizes the number of short-handed shifts. Additionally, when supervisors don’t have to call and text employees to cover shifts they can be far more productive in their positions.
