Cover for staff absence with factory clocking network rostering

Doncaster based lorry drivers will take part in a two-day strike over a threat to jobs. About 180 drivers at the retail distribution centre are set to start the walk out. Employers Eddie Stobart said it was disappointed by the action. The well known firm took over operations at the Doncaster site in August, while announcing the reorganisation during the next month. The Unite union said in response that 92 per cent of drivers had voted in favour of a strike.

Worried your firm cannot cover for staff absence? Time & Attendance North East supplies factory clocking networks that deal with absenteeism and lateness reporting; plus comprehensive rostering and shift organisation. The system automatically informs by emailing or text messaging both employees and managers about holiday request authorisations or refusals. Using speakers attached to a PC or to the audio distribution network, spoken alerts are heard in a variety of voices and on screen ‘agents’ (similar to the Microsoft paperclip).
