Kronos for Manufacturing
Streamline your operations without sacrificing productivity or satisfaction
Manufacturers need to remain competitive in an economy that demands efficiency. To accomplish that, many have adopted Six Sigma and other lean initiatives. But surprisingly, many have yet to focus on their largest controllable expense: the workforce.
For those manufacturers, workforce management remains a manual and error-prone process. It's also a costly one. Paper-based attendance tracking and scheduling systems weigh heavily on the productivity of managers, employees, and operational staff.
To address these problems, you need a partner that understands the challenges to managing a manufacturing workforce, including:
- Aggressive deadlines and fluctuating demands from your customers
- Highly unionised environments with complex work and pay rules
- Extreme reliance on overtime and contingent labour to meet objectives
