Users of Gallinet’s PeopleHours on-line scheduling and control room monitoring software are having another upgrade to one of its key applications.
Users can now securely upload and store files and documents to employee and location records within the core application.
Documents such as assignment instructions, risk assessments, HR documents, contract reviews and patrol point locations can all be linked, allowing them to be viewed and amended on the road or on site giving users secure access to the information they need, whenever and wherever they are. Storing data this way provides automatic reminders when document annual reviews are due and the facility to complete reviews onsite, such as risk assessments, or face to face with an employee in the case of staff reviews, the developers say.
This update is in addition to the existing functions that allow staff to view their future, current and past duty schedules or holiday status using mobile apps. Or, if managers prefer, they can send rosters to all or selected staff via email with a couple of clicks. Some 1000 employees checking their duty schedules daily using the TelMe service, according to the software firm.
A reporting suite for mangers allows reports to be scheduled and delivered automatically via email. Contract managers, or indeed their clients, can now have last night’s incident reports waiting in their email to be read over morning coffee, or time and attendance reports supporting invoices can be sent to accounts departments automatically to their required delivery schedules.
Other updates planned will add patrol recording using RFID tags, incident reporting and image capture or lone worker welfare monitoring; and time and attendance generation to include GPS proof of presence records. The software firm adds that it wants to add features that are more directly useful to the end employee; to include reminders of upcoming shifts, the ability to request overtime and addition shifts, submit holiday applications or requests for days off or new uniform items.
