Workforce Management Software Users Move to Online Scheduling Software by Shiftboard
(Market Wire Via Acquire Media NewsEdge) SEATTLE, WA -- (MARKET WIRE) -- 05/13/09 --
As staff scheduling and onboarding costs rise,
Shiftboard's new release of its SaaS Integrated Workforce
Management software creates efficiencies that contain costs and
increase productivity.
"Shiftboard has been instrumental in standardizing the scheduling of over
1,500 volunteers placed at multi-sites. Recruiting and onboarding
volunteers has been simplified for everyone involved. We have been able to
increase our abilities to clearly manage over 135 projects. This includes
documentation of 80 different items for each volunteer from references to
performance notes," said Keya Williams, Program Coordinator at Beaumont
Hospitals.
"Because many of our customers have flexible or contingent workers like
contractors or hourly staff with high turnover, ongoing recruiting and
onboarding needs to be integrated directly into their online scheduling
system. We have packaged those offerings together with common features
requested by customers across industries," explained Bryan Lhuillier,
Shiftboard's Chief Product Officer.
"Our customers start with a pure scheduling capacity and then start to
migrate away from their legacy Workforce Management and Human Resources
Management Systems (HRMS) and into Shiftboard because it is so easy to
use," said Lhuillier.
Benefits of the new Shiftboard Integrated Workforce
Management software include:
* Customizable and comprehensive worker profiles with unlimited fields.
Profiles can range from simple emergency contact information and references
to training and certification dates and even comprehensive medical
credentialing for healthcare workers.
* Worker web registration. Any or all profile fields can be easily
integrated with web registration forms that let workers and managers add to
and modify the Shiftboard online worker database directly without requiring
additional data entry work from HR staff. Automated notification can be
sent to managers whenever new recruit web registrations are submitted.
* Advanced onboarding. For companies with multi-step recruiting processes,
candidate and worker account profiles can be tracked through each step of
the recruiting process for reporting analysis and list filtering.
* Multiple worker profile roles. With Shiftboard's Professional and
Enterprise editions, profiles for different types of workers can be
uniquely designed to capture unique profile information. For instance,
profiles for nurses and physicians at medical staffing firm can be
customized with only role-specific data.
* Digital filing and document management. All worker accounts support
digital document attachment for resume/CVs, transcripts, certifications,
and licenses.
* Performance management. Private management notes can be entered in a
given worker's account and are automatically time-stamped for future
review. An optional personnel scoring system also can be used in
conjunction with manager notes.
