Online employee scheduling software helps hospital streamline nurse scheduling process

FARGO, ND - June 27, 2012 - Atlas Business Solutions, Inc. (ABS), a leading provider of employee scheduling software, today announced the release of a new self-scheduling module for its online employee scheduling software, ScheduleAnywhere. This optional add-on module, primarily used by healthcare providers and non-profits, allows an organization to empower employees to schedule themselves instead of having schedules assigned to them. Self scheduling can offer several benefits, including:

• Save managers time and effort in schedule preparation
• Reduce absenteeism and "no shows"
• Improve staff retention
• Increase overall employee satisfaction

"The employee self-scheduling option is the next step in our development efforts to enhance the overall scheduling process for both employees and managers," said Jon Forknell, vice president and general manager of Atlas Business Solutions. "As employees select their preferred work schedule, managers simply oversee the scheduling to ensure proper shift coverage. Although not prevalent in all industries, this functionality is highly desirable for both health care organizations and non-profits."
