Kronos
Incorporated today announced that organizations across every
industry are increasingly turning to the full-suite Kronos
Workforce Ready human capital management (HCM) cloud platform to

News Facts
-
Organizations around the world are overcoming their unique challenges
by deploying the Workforce Ready HCM cloud platform.
-
Mammoth Resorts - With four unique mountain destinations,
the Mammoth Resorts workforce fluctuates from 1,100 off-season
employees to nearly 4,500 peak-season employees. With Workforce
Ready, Mammoth has a single-source HCM solution that simplifies
the crucial seasonal hiring process, provides real-time data and
comprehensive reporting to support better workforce decisions, and
minimizes compliance risks associated with the Affordable Care Act
(ACA), Fair Labor Standards Act (FLSA), Family and Medical Leave
Act (FMLA), and complex California labor laws.

Dowco, Inc. - Dowco is a global leader in the design and
manufacturing of products for the marine and power sports
industries. Following deployment of Workforce Ready, it
experienced a 20 percent increase in productivity thanks to
improved alignment between staffing and production. More
importantly, Dowco eliminated the burden of manual, paper-driven
processes, allowing the HR team to focus on reinventing company
culture through technology and engaging employees through
self-service.
-
Rehab Resources - Workforce Ready replaced manual,
time-consuming processes previously used by Rehab Resources, and
the suite's ease-of-use prompted the organization to double the
number of employees using the platform within 18 months of initial
implementation. With 900 employees, Rehab Resources' physical
therapists, occupational therapists, and speech pathologists
provide services at skilled nursing facilities, short-term rehab
programs, hospitals, schools, and other outpatient locations.
Workforce Ready tracks professional licensing and certifications,
automating alerts for expiring credentials to minimize compliance
risks. The solution identifies which employees are qualified to
work at specific facilities, simplifying scheduling to make
managers more productive. Employees are also able to punch in and
out remotely via a tablet application.

Saint-Gobain PAM UK - Saint-Gobain PAM UK is a leading
supplier of iron products to the water, construction, and
utilities industries, and infrastructure and civil engineering
projects, from international pipelines to domestic drainpipes.
With 350 employees across three sites in the U.K., the
manufacturer replaced its manual spreadsheet time and attendance
processes with Workforce Ready for time and labor management.
Visibility into the workforce has improved and supervisors are now
empowered to manage their teams more effectively.

organizations in Australia, Belgium, Canada, Mexico, Netherlands, New
Zealand, and the U.K. now leveraging the solution.

optimize workforce management, and manage continually evolving,
complex compliance requirements, such as FLSA, with recent
enhancements including:
-
Additional compliance functionality to simplify year-end reporting
for ACA, enhanced support of working time regulations in the
European Union, and new payroll-based journal reporting
requirements, which is particularly important for healthcare
organizations;
-
A unified user experience that includes new workflow options,
streamlined benefits enrollment and administration processes, and
additional notifications to ensure managers and employees are
communicating important information effectively;
-
Expanded scheduling functionality that makes building better
schedules even easier, as well as more time tracking and time-off
management capabilities to unlock newfound efficiencies; and
-
An innovative software
development relationship with Google (News - Alert) for Work has yielded
further integrations between Workforce Ready and Google Calendar,
Contacts, Drive, and Maps to aid productivity for organizations
globally that use both platforms.

Erica Sutch, payroll manager, Mammoth Resorts
"Mammoth
Resorts depends on Workforce Ready to recruit, manage, and continually
engage a diverse workforce of full-time, part-time, and seasonal
employees that must smoothly scale up and down to meet demand.
Disparate systems made this process very challenging in the past.
Because Workforce Ready is a full-suite HCM platform, we're able to
manage the entire employee lifecycle from a single-source solution.
This streamlines HR processes, provides easy access to all employee
data for critical visibility into operations, and allows us to
proactively manage compliance risks such as ACA, FLSA, and FMLA.

generate benefits for Mammoth Mountain, Bear Mountain, June Mountain,
and Snow Summit."
