The challenge
Managing a dispersed, high-volume workforce across the U.S. created several critical operational issues:
-
Unapproved shifts: Suppliers could create shifts without authorization, leading to legal exposure since U.S. laws require payments if a worker clocks in, regardless of shift approval.
-
Lack of shift control: Internal teams needed exclusive authority over shift creation to prevent rogue entries and protect the business.
-
Inconsistent scheduling across regions: Scheduling across multiple regions and time zones led to frequent errors in scheduling and misaligned staffing needs.
-
Delayed reporting & compliance risks: Overtime visibility was only available after timesheet approval, limiting proactive compliance - especially in states like California without strict OT rules.
-
Onboarding gaps: Super users and suppliers lacked standard onboarding, slowing adoption and impacting daily operatons.
