Is your healthcare workforce disengaged? Costs are rising. Patient populations are growing. Delivering excellent patient care while controlling costs and maintaining staff morale is becoming increasingly challenging in a sector that’s stretched thin and dealing with growing staff shortages. Before you can think about strengthening the overall patient experience, you have to improve the flexibility of your workforce.
Staff turnover continues to be a costly issue for healthcare providers, making it ever more critical to attract and retain quality talent. But how do you strike the right balance between employee preferences and patient and business needs? In this white paper from Kronos, learn how centralizing and standardizing systems and processes can help providers manage costs, improve productivity, and deliver great care.
Employee engagement has a long way to go in healthcare organizations. This report, including data from an employee survey conducted by Coleman Parkes on behalf of the Workforce Institute at Kronos, details just how much engagement work organizations have left to do. It also describes how much time is being wasted each week on administrative work, how better or more current technology could get some of that time back, and the importance of better systems integration.
Are you aware of the impact that employee absences have on your organization? The survey results in this report detail the challenge that absenteeism presents to healthcare providers. What are the two key factors that would increase employee engagement? This report describes them, as well as the key role that your CEO must play.
You’ll also learn more about the crucial role technology can play in:
- Automating payroll processes
- Scheduling employees’ shifts to meet patient demand
- Managing absences effectively
- Empowering employees with self-service
- Using workforce analytics to drive continuous improvement
Each of these strategies can help engage employees while improving business performance.
An integrated approach to workforce management also streamlines time-consuming and error-prone administrative processes—including timekeeping, work- and pay-rule enforcement, attendance tracking, and leave management—to support compliance efforts and help ensure fair, equitable treatment of employees across the organization.
