Why Smart Shift Scheduling Makes Sense

Many large businesses (and some smaller businesses) view scheduling as daunting, another checklist item on their ever-growing list of things to do. They are right to an extent. But tackling employee scheduling does not have to be complicated, labor intensive, or even scary. ShedWool Smart Scheduling alleviates a multitude of pain points for both management and employees.

Take a moment to consider just a few of the common hurdles workforce management faces:

1. Using “traditional” methods, often weekly, the scheduler must sit at a desk and maneuver an Excel sheet or Google doc, and enter each person in, hoping there will be no conflicts.

2. Printing these schedules out and posting them around the business is not only unsightly, but they can be accidentally ripped down and unauthorized changes can be made to them.

3. Managers spend a significant amount of time taking calls from employees who need to know if they are scheduled, what their days off are, or if they can make a change.

4. Looking for people to fill open shifts is time consuming, frustrating, and destroys productivity.

5. Communication channels can get muddled as not every employee will always be able to make it to each team meeting, so some crucial information will undoubtedly not be passed to everyone.

How do you solve these problems? The answer is simple. A true smart scheduling solution is needed. ShedWool provides you a seamless and automated process, allowing employees to check schedules that are updated “live” and pick up open shifts, offers a communications channel, and gives optimal file sharing capability.
