Choosing the best MYOB workforce management and rostering app for your business will depend on the type of industry you are in, how many staff you have, and how often their shifts change. If you want your business to operate efficiently, you need the right staff – but even more importantly, you need the right staff at the right time. Having too few staff working during peak hours, or too many during slow periods, great sales agents on holidays in high-sales seasons, or giving the wrong jobs to the wrong people can all impact your business success. A properly designed workforce management and rostering app can help a business get the best from its employees by keeping them on track while also improving job satisfaction.
There are many workforce management and rostering apps that integrate with MYOB. Read on to discover some of the most popular ones and what they have to offer.
First though, let’s cover some of the reasons why effective rostering is so important.
- Effective rostering motivates employees, particularly when they are assigned shifts that suit their lifestyle. For example, parents working during school hours.
- Effective rostering can save a business money by reducing the reliance on casual workers who can fill a staffing shortfall at a moment’s notice. It also allows a business to identify areas where they might have a surplus of staff so only the number of staff required are hired at a particular time.
- Effective rostering encourages higher staff attendance rates by providing suitable hours that match their availability and skill levels.
