Transform data into real workforce understanding
Our flexible employee population used to be managed manually. That meant we’d have to text each worker individually to ask if they could fill a shift, which added up to more than 250 text messages per week at just one of our sites. Now, managing this population in UKG, we can look at the different areas of our factories to determine where we need to place those workers and what we need them to do and then use broadcast messaging in our UKG suite to let them know their shifts are available and booked. It’s been revolutionary.
