Kronos Releases WorkForce Mobile Scheduler

January 24, 2010 – Kronos Incorporated has announced general availability of Workforce Mobile Scheduler, a mobile application that allows managers to instantly engage with employees using a variety of mobile devices. With Workforce Mobile Scheduler, managers can broadcast a text message to the mobile devices of employees who are qualified to fill an open shift. Once an employee accepts the shift, it is automatically assigned, and a second message notifies employees that the shift has been filled. “We are already seeing significant interest in Workforce Mobile Scheduler,” said Peter George, chief technology officer of Kronos. “Organizations appreciate that this is how the workforce of today communicates, and being able to engage with them via mobile technology saves time and increases productivity.”
