Workforce management encompasses all the activities needed to maintain a productive workforce, including effectively forecasting labor requirements and creating and managing staff schedules to accomplish a particular task on a day-to-day basis. Generally, a comprehensive workforce management system encompasses a range of activities within the broader framework of human resource management (HRM), such as: forecasting and budgeting; staff scheduling; time and attendance;employee performance management; payroll and benefits and vacation and leave planning.

In today’s ever-changing business landscape, the way we work is constantly evolving, along with the technology that helps us manage our workforce. Managers have become required to make better business decisions faster, and employees expect more from their workplace tools. Modern workforce management applications need to empower managers, enhance the employee experience, and most importantly support flexibility.
