Case Study: Clas Ohlson gets new tools from Softworks to manage employee time, attendance and rostering
Clas Ohlson was founded in 1918 as a mail order business based in Insjön, Dalarna, Sweden. Today, the company is trading in five countries offering outstanding service via its 200 stores, web shop, catalogue and telephone sales channels. Stores are located in Sweden, Norway, Finland, China and the UK. Clas Ohlson helps its customers solve every day practical small problems with a wide range of affordable products in five product areas: Hardware, Electrical, Home, Multimedia and Leisure.
Clas Ohlson approached Softworks to provide them with a system to handle employee Time & Attendance and Scheduling/Rostering for their 12 stores in the United Kingdom. Their key requirements were;
• Automation – They required an automated system to easily manage employee time, attendance and workforce scheduling/rostering.
• Integration – They needed a system that could integrate with their other systems including Microsoft Dynamics for HR and Sage for Payroll.
• Custom Reporting – As each branch creates their own rosters for their own team, handles exceptions and runs payroll, Clas Ohlson needed a system that could run custom reports in relation to branch costs and performance. • They wanted reports that they could share with their head office in Sweden.
