"Tracking Employee Hours is More Important Than Ever"- Launch of Ideal Small Business Solution
The website Schedule My Employees allows employers to create schedules and broadcast them to employees. With the Affordable Care Act on the horizon, this is a timely development ideal for small businesses.
FOOTHILL RANCH, Calif., Oct. 9, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- Through using the online tools available at schedule-my-employees.com, companies can gain tremendous functionality for their work schedules. The process works much like a spreadsheet: create a schedule, add employees, and enter their hours. But unlike a simple spreadsheet, schedule-my-employees.com calculates time and cost totals and provides a number of tools and features not available in a spreadsheet or handwritten schedule.
When a small business schedules their employees, any hours worked in excess of various limits can be very costly. The costs of overtime hours are well known, but with the coming of the Affordable Care Act (Obamacare), employers have yet another threshold to monitor.
Developer Walter Spurgiasz explains, "While big businesses use sophisticated human resource planning and management systems (HRMS) to track employee's hours and labor rule compliance, small businesses simply do not have the time and resources to implement these complex systems. I realized there was a very real need for the functionality we've made available at schedule-my-employees.com. Tracking employee hours is more important than ever."
Small businesses should look for scheduling systems that work in a similar fashion to the spreadsheet or pencil and paper methods they currently use, but that also offer features to make tracking work hours less error prone. These features should facilitate notification and communication of schedules and thresholds being exceeded.
Schedule-my-employees.com makes it easy to track when employees have been over or under scheduled with its desired hours feature. When an employee has been scheduled outside a range of expected weekly hours, a color-coded indicator highlights the exception.
Spurgiasz adds, "New features are under development to automatically notify management when limits have been crossed to further insure important thresholds are not accidentally exceeded.
