Budgets staffing levels by department, unit, job classification, and shift. System suggests employees to fill in scheduling holes, based on organization's best practices. Manages work constraints. No weeding through written requests for overtime and time off or employees who have expressed availability for the shift in question. 9 Drastically reduce unnecessary overtime costs.
