It&#8217;s a way of showing your employees they matter, and a building block of a healthy company culture. Here&#8217;s how the scheduling generator in the <a href=\"\/en-ca\/time-attendance-schedule-optimization-suite\/workforce-labour-optimization-module\/\"><b>Workforce Labour Optimization<\/b><\/a> module can help you follow the rules set out in your collective agreement while avoiding costly errors.<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"respecting-the-rules-of-your-collective-agreement\">Respecting the Rules of Your Collective Agreement<\/h2>\n<p>Built with a memory that never slips, SIGMA-HR&#8217;s Workforce Labour Optimization software helps you avoid the errors that creep into manual schedule management. With this in-depth technology, you can configure every rule specified in your collective agreement, including premiums, wages, and leave. You can also build call-back lists and manage vacations and replacements, all while respecting the constraints specific to your organization.<\/p>\n<p><b>Read more:<\/b> <a href=\"\/en-ca\/blog\/la-ligue-de-lenseignement-simplifies-human-resources-management-with-sigma-hrs-hcm-software\/\"><b>La Ligue de l&#8217;Enseignement Simplifies HR Management with SIGMA-HR<\/b><\/a><\/p>\n<h2 id=\"avoiding-the-costs-of-non-compliance-errors\">Avoiding the Costs of Non-Compliance Errors<\/h2>\n<p>Without the right tools, errors can slip through unnoticed.<\/p>\n<h3 id=\"consider-this-example\"><b>Consider this example:<\/b><\/h3>\n<p>Following an overtime call-back, an employee in your organization ends up being overpaid. But under the collective agreement, that employee didn&#8217;t have priority for that time slot. The result? Every employee who did have priority must also be paid the same premium. Without doing complex math, you can see that the more workers you have, the higher the cost of a single error like this one.<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"technology-that-never-makes-a-mistake\">Technology That Never Makes a Mistake<\/h2>\n<p>To avoid these costly errors, use a solution like SIGMA-HR&#8217;s Workforce Labour Optimization software, which accounts for your collective agreement. Better yet, sync it with your accounting software to reduce the irregularities tied to manual data entry. Pair it with the <a href=\"\/en-ca\/time-attendance-schedule-optimization-suite\/time-clocks-and-schedules\/\"><b>Scheduling and Time Clock module<\/b><\/a> for reliable, tamper-proof time tracking on top of compliant scheduling.<\/p>\n<p>They say to err is human.
