The human arsenal has always been pretty expansive in its nature, but at the same time, it still hasn’t had the chance to offer anything more valuable than our ability to improve at a consistent pace. We say this because the stated ability has already fetched the world some huge milestones, with technology appearing as a rather unique member of the group. The reason why technology’s credentials are so anomalous is purposed around its skill-set, which was unprecedented enough to realize all the possibilities for us that we couldn’t have imagined otherwise. Nevertheless, if we look up close for a second, it will become clear how the whole runner was also very much inspired by the way we applied those skills across a real world environment. The latter component was, in fact, what gave the creation a spectrum-wide presence and made it the ultimate centerpiece of every horizon. Now, having such a powerful tool run the show did expand our experience in many different directions, but even after reaching so far ahead, this prodigious concept called technology will somehow keep on delivering the right goods. The same has grown to become a lot more evident in recent times, and assuming one new HRM-themed development pans out just like we envision, it will only propel that trend towards greater heights over the near future and beyond.
Legion Technologies, an innovator in workforce management (WFM), has officially announced the integration of its award-winning Legion WFM platform with SAP SuccessFactors solutions, an integration which will help companies employing hourly workers to simplify their employee lifecycle management. Now available on SAP store as per the agreed terms, the stated Legion WFM platform basically makes it possible for companies in labor-intensive industries, such as retail and hospitality, to maximize labor efficiency and employee engagement through intelligent, automated, employee-centric workforce management. Talk about this value proposition on a slightly deeper level, it begins from the promise of strategic insight, which translates to availing instant insights into employee engagement, manager productivity, labor output, and compliance trends. Then, we have an automated labor budgeting functionality. Here, the approach is to combine accurate long-term demand forecasts with your organization’s own labor model and scheduling rules for the purpose of creating precise labor insights. A similar insight is there to inform you on demand. You see, using the solution, you can easily predict demand across all customer touchpoints, and you can do so after every 15 minutes. Moving on, the Legion WFM platform also brings to the fore the mechanism needed for automated scheduling. This includes creating optimal schedules that match business needs with employee preferences and skills. Extending the automation angle is a feature to facilitate automated time and attendance, packing together all the necessary steps like timesheet approvals, corrections, and premium calculations.
“In today’s challenging economic environment, employers are looking for ways to drive higher levels of labor efficiency and engagement with their employees. Legion WFM’s integration with SAP SuccessFactors Human Experience Management suite meets this need, providing organizations in a variety of industries around the globe with a workforce management solution that enables core employee data from SAP SuccessFactors to be automatically integrated into Legion WFM to simplify employee lifecycle management,” said Michael McKeon, VP of Global Alliances for Legion Technologies.
Hold on, we still have a few bits left to unpack, considering we still haven’t discussed the solution’s communication capabilities. By that, we are touching on its ability to leverage digital communication to improve co-ordination between frontline hourly workers, thus greatly enhancing their experience. Another way Legion WFM enhances worker experience is through instant wage access. Unlocking access to earned wages in the same app that employees use every day, the technology goes a long way in promoting financial wellness and employee retention. That’s still not all. We say so because the solution also supplies instant feedback and recognition to engage and motivate hourly employees. To round up the highlights, while we have already discussed how Legion WFM applies automation to labor budgeting, one can also bank upon it to help managers generate an optimal labor plan.
Founded in, Legion Technologies has risen up on the back of its proprietary platform, which has proven to produce 13 times the average ROI through schedule optimization, reduced attrition, increased productivity, and increased operational efficiency.
