YMCA of Greater Boston Joins the Kronos Cloud
The YMCA of Greater Boston, one of the largest urban YMCAs in the
nation with more than 2,200 employees and a focus on youth development,
healthy living, and social responsibility, has deployed workforce
management solutions from Kronos
Incorporated in the Kronos (News - Alert) Cloud.
News Facts
-
Founded in 1851 as the first YMCA in the U.S., the YMCA of Greater
Boston selected Kronos to standardize workforce management processes
and help the organization achieve greater efficiencies across the 67
branches, camps, and program centers it operates. The YMCA of Greater
Boston expects to optimize operational costs and reduce errors
associated with manual processes, allowing the organization to further
invest in members and community services.
-
The YMCA of Greater Boston joins the active community of YMCA
organizations across the U.S. that leverage Kronos solutions and will
utilize a single, unified platform of Kronos time and attendance,
human resources, and payroll applications to more effectively manage
its unique workforce comprised of part-time, full-time, and seasonal
employees.
-
With many employees working multiple jobs at varying rates of pay
across different branch locations and program sites, the ability to
centrally track employee time and manage schedules with Kronos will
help managers ensure that employees are paid accurately and they have
the right employees in place at the right times to deliver a safe,
positive member experience. YMCA staff members also benefit from
accessing the Kronos application on their mobile devices, allowing
them to perform time management tasks on-site or on-the-go.
-
The YMCA of Greater Boston hires more than 700 seasonal employees each
year. Previously, the YMCA manually on-boarded each of the hires
individually. With Kronos, the on-boarding process is streamlined and
paperless, which enables the YMCA to redeploy resources to focus on
more strategic objectives.
-
By deploying in the Kronos Cloud, the YMCA of Greater Boston has
reduced the need for additional IT resources and relies on Kronos for
access to the latest enhancements and software upgrades leading to a
rapid return on investment.

Paul Mantell, vice president, human resouces, YMCA of Greater
Boston
"After more than 160 years of using a paper-based
system, we were looking for a solution that was easy to use and had
the functionality to meet the complex needs of our workforce. Kronos
emerged as the clear leader and has proven success and a presence
within the YMCA community. Within a short time, our workforce
management processes have been simplified, and we are better able to
keep track of budgets because branch executives now have enhanced
visibility into labor costs before payroll has run. Ultimately, our
selection will save us both time and money."

Malysa O'Connor, director, services practice group, Kronos
"YMCAs
are challenged with the difficult task of operating efficiently while
also delivering quality programs that support its members. By
automating and centralizing workforce management processes, Kronos
will help the YMCA of Greater Boston improve efficiencies and give the
organization the ability to redirect resources previously buried under
piles of paper for an even greater member service."
