Automation of Pay Processes

Effectively managing payroll for a highly skilled, highly paid workforce can be a challenge.

Synerion’s workforce management software integrates seamlessly into your existing payroll system to ensure maximum accuracy.There is simply no complex scenario that Synerion cannot overcome with the help of our automation software.

Manufacturing Scheduling

Using our scheduling software, your organization will be able to improve backfill management processes. Synerion’s workforce scheduling solution is ideal for the manufacturing industry as it makes automatic recommendations on which employee to call in case of an absence or illness. Our system will consider a number of factors, including overtime, skill level, seniority, union agreements and pay rate to help you determine which employee is the right fit to work the shift. Our scheduling solution also allows you to better manage skill sets within your organization, matching your available resources to business requirements and reducing overtime costs.

Labour Allocation

Within the manufacturing industry, it’s important to understand exactly what your workforce is doing throughout the day, which client they are working for and what they are producing. Our manufacturing workforce management software can capture this data so you can pinpoint the labour costs associated with each individual task. Our software will provide you with the real costs of your labour by integrating relevant job information or work orders from your ERP system.
