What is labour productivity?
Every hour worked by a member of the team has a cost, but not all of these hours deliver the same return in sales. Productivity refers to how much someone is able to deliver in every hour worked. Customer demand will factor into this, however, enabling your teams to do more and drive increased sales will turbo charge productivity.
Improving labour productivity
We know that deploying your team isn’t just about when you need them, it’s also where you need them and what you need them doing. Great guest experience, upsell, improved team engagement and increased revenue all come from planning and executing the perfect shift.
Planning productive shifts
S4labour allows you to allocate sections, roles and tasks so that each member of staff can fill their shift with productive activity. This is particularly powerful during SLACK times.
The tool can be used to design an optimal shift where the manager cannot see how to get the most out of the tight number of people working.
The process of a great shift plan combined with full visibility allows a 25% increase in productivity.
