SaaShr, Inc. today announced the latest release of its
workforce management suite - including the launch of a powerful
scheduling module - to deliver enterprise-class workforce management
solutions in the cloud to small and midsize businesses (SMBs) through a
network of service providers. In addition to helping their SMB customers

News Facts
-
Noted mathematical scientist George Bernard Dantzig famously stated
that scheduling 70 people to 70 jobs would produce a number of
potential configurations greater than the number of particles in the
universe. Kronos (News - Alert) SaaShr partners can now provide an advanced
scheduling application to automate this intricate business challenge
by matching the availability and skills of their customers' employees
with business demand to create an efficient and effective schedule.
The new scheduling application helps organizations:
-
Solve the complex scheduling puzzle by assigning the right
employee to the right job at the right time while freeing managers
to focus on their people and the core business;
-
Develop efficient schedules in the cloud with drag-and-drop
convenience that balance employee preferences, customer
demand, and predefined criteria - including availability, skills,
certifications, company policies, and union rules.
-
Enhancements to the Kronos SaaShr platform also allow reseller
partners to help clients effectively recruit, manage, and
reward their workforces:
-
Recruiting has been streamlined with functionality that automates
hiring tasks and generates new notifications to help hire and
efficiently onboard best-fit employees with the ability
to import existing applicant information from legacy systems;
-
New workflows enable a more flexible and user-friendly
performance review process, including more visibility into
performance review schedules, the ability for multiple reviewers
to process reviews simultaneously or in parallel, and an option to
add a general comments section at the end of the review; and
-
Usability and reporting enhancements for benefits management
simplify the employee enrollment process while reducing the
administrative burden on HR associated with benefits program
design and configuration, carrier reconciliation, and reporting.

management user experience with a new dashboard widget with
customizable quick-link buttons that streamline common tasks and
processes to make the system easier to navigate for all users.

help drive consistent policy enforcement.

New features continue to help SMB customers reduce compliance risk
with intuitive and easy to use reporting functionality, including the
ability to streamline and automate forms and reporting requirements
associated with the Affordable Care Act (ACA).

Laurie McCabe, partner, SMB Group
"Scheduling is a complex
issue for any organization - and the argument could be made it's even
more difficult for small to midsize businesses that have less
resources to coordinate efficient, effective schedules that keep
customers and employees happy. With the addition of employee
scheduling to the suite, Kronos SaaShr adds yet another
powerful tool that makes the lives of managers, operational personnel,
and HR much easier while doing what's best for the business."

Bob DelPonte, vice president and general manager, small and midsize
business, Kronos

robust HR functionality and now automated scheduling - so our partner
network can provide the best technology, services, and support to SMB
customers. With the addition of employee scheduling, partners can
deliver automated tools to help their clients put the right employee
in the right place at the right time to maximize customer and employee
engagement while minimizing compliance risk. This is the strongest
release to date, and partners will be excited."
