Workforce forecasting involves predicting your future staffing needs based on current data and trends. This can involve analysing your current workforce, considering your strategic plans, assessing external factors and using statistical methods to predict future needs. It should consider factors like turnover, retirement, promotions and changes in demand.
Various tools can be used in workforce planning. Spreadsheets can be used for simpler needs, while more complex situations might require specialised workforce management software. These tools can help with forecasting, scenario planning and capacity planning. They can also provide features like data visualisation, what-if analysis and integration with other HR systems.
The benefits of using a workforce forecasting tool include more accurate forecasts, increased efficiency, better decision-making and improved strategic alignment. Such tools can help you optimise staffing levels, reduce costs and better prepare for future needs. They can also provide valuable insights and support more data-driven HR management.
A workforce forecasting tool can help your company’s bottom line by ensuring you have the right staffing levels. Having too few staff members can lead to poor service, missed opportunities and overworked employees. Or having too many staff members can lead to unnecessary costs. Accurate workforce forecasting also supports better strategic planning and more efficient resource allocation, contributing to improved profitability.
The “better” option between cloud-based and on-premises software for workforce forecasting depends on your specific needs and circumstances. Cloud-based software offers advantages like lower upfront costs, easier scaling and accessibility from anywhere. On-premises software might provide more control, better performance and potential advantages in terms of data security and compliance. It’s important to consider factors like cost, security, scalability and your IT resources when making this decision.
Shift bidding is the traditional scheduling method for enabling employees to pick their preferred shift pattern/schedule for a given period. Typically, this would follow the flow of the scheduler building a “dummy” or synthetic forecast and schedule based on employee profiles. The resulting schedule is then made available to the employees, and they can pick their preferences in order of seniority or performance.
