1. Savings from an Automated WFM Solution Examples from Various Industries

2. Savings Implementing a Workforce Management solution is a large monetary commitment Providers of WFM systems always promise strong savings Here are some actual values to back up that claim… 2

3. Manufacturing If you have 1 employee, who is paid $20/hour and is away from work for15 minutes (i.e. arrives late, takes a long lunch, or leaves early): $20 per hour = $5 for 15 minutes $5 x 5 days a week = $25 $25 x 52 weeks per year $1300 per year of unproductive paid time Most manufacturing firms have more than just 1 employee though – if you had 50 employees with the same habit: $65 000 per year of unproductive paid time 3

4. Professional Services If your company has 50 hourly employees who are paid $15/hour each, as well as 50 salaried employees, a WFM solution can save you: At least 1.5% of wages for hourly workers with improved accuracy: $23,400/year in labour costs $25,000/year in hiring and training costs, if there are just 2 less hourly and 2 less salaried employee turnovers a year Up to 6 paid hours a week (for a supervisor paid $25/hour, that’s $7,800/year), with software to generate employee schedules That translates to $56,200/year in savings, not to mention the added value of abiding by compliance regulations 4

5. Retail Let’s look at a chain of grocery stores with 50 different locations where managers are paid $20/hour: A WFM solution saves managers 2 hours/week, given the scheduling and attendance administration capabilities: 2 hours/week x 50 locations = 100 hours $20/hour x 100 hours = $2,000 $2,000 x 52 weeks/year $104,000 per year With optimized scheduling capabilities, managers can save 5 hours/week in overtime at a rate of $18/hour: 5 overtime hours/week x 50 locations = 250 hours 250 hours x $18/hour = $4,500 $4,500 x 52 weeks/year $234,000 per year 5
