Workforce Dimensions Revolutionizes the Manager and Employee Experience at LondonEnergy
Kronos
Incorporated today announced that LondonEnergy, one of the largest
sustainable energy, recycling, and resource management providers in the
U.K., has transformed its workforce with the deployment of Workforce
Dimensions. Powered by the intelligent Kronos
D5 platform, the revolutionary workforce management solution gives
LondonEnergy unprecedented operational insight and provides an
unparalleled, personalized experience for employees.
News Facts
-
LondonEnergy, a longtime Kronos (News - Alert) customer, has migrated its entire
workforce - including full-time, contract, and seasonal employees - to
the next-generation Workforce
Dimensions suite, enabling the company to transform its manager
and employee experience by:
-
Using artificial intelligence (AI) to automate repetitive
requests: Previously, managers depended on a manual system to
track and review time-off and scheduling requests, a
time-consuming and laborious process. Workforce Advisor, the
industry's first digital personal assistant, unburdens managers
from repetitive, daily administrative tasks by evaluating each
request in real time, enabling managers to focus on higher-value
activities while employees instantly know if their request has
been approved.
-
Instant access to real-time data: With fewer administrative
responsibilities, LondonEnergy managers now have more time to
solve critical business issues with Workforce Dimensions embedded
analytics, which provides up-to-the-minute insights leveraging
more than 150 key performance indicators. For instance, in the
past, managers did not have access to overtime data until weeks
after hours had accrued. Now, with proactive compliance, they know
well in advance if a worker is approaching the maximum number of
hours they can legally work so managers can take action.
-
Smarter shift scheduling: Workforce Dimensions, with its
ability to detect schedule patterns, gives managers a smarter,
more comprehensive view of shift scheduling at LondonEnergy, while
empowering employees by giving them greater control of their
schedule preferences.
-
For example, collaborative self-scheduling lets workers select
where, when, and how long they want to work. If a shift-swap
is needed, Workforce Advisor identifies colleagues most likely
to swap based on preferences, availability, and
qualifications, then executes the swap automatically without
manager involvement.
Managers overseeing multiple recycling centers will also have
immediate insight into who is scheduled to work which shift
and where and are presented with qualified staffing options if
a worker calls out sick. The predictive capabilities of
Workforce Dimensions dramatically reduce time spent trying to
secure a replacement while ensuring that individuals are
working proper shifts.
-
Personalized experience from any device for all: With
Workforce Dimensions, employees can personalize their experience
to showcase the information most important to them and work their
way by punching in and out, viewing schedules, swapping shifts,
and requesting time off from the convenience of their phone,
tablet, or desktop - from any location - providing a consistent
user experience on each device without feature loss.
The future-ready features of Workforce Dimensions closely align with
LondonEnergy's mission to become a next-generation sustainable energy
company. The platform will help LondonEnergy run more efficiently in a
more cost-effective manner, as it focuses on the next stage of
recycling and energy generation.
