eSchedule takes on HR headaches

TORONTO ― Employers spend an average of 2.8 hours each week dealing with absenteeism, according to industry research by Mercer Canada. Reducing that window has become a mission for Calgary entrepreneur Kory Arsenault. His eSchedule program manages shift changes for anywhere from five to 15,000 employees and tracks and approves their requests for time-off. The web-based software counts Ace Hardware among its customers. Special for our faithful Hardlines readers: a 15-day free trial. Click here to find out more.
