What is Workforce Management (WfM)?

Workforce Management, or WfM, begins with a clear distinction between Systems and Policies & Principles. While many standalone and integrated WfM systems are available, true WfM starts with solid Policies and Principles complemented, facilitated and enabled by modern, robust systems.

Key Elements of Effective WfM:

  1. Strategy: The foundation. Without it, planning and delivery are impossible.
  2. Policy Standards: Should include unique business drivers, specific recommendations, key enablers, working methods cycles, and a supportive framework.
  3. Planning: Stemming from a clear strategy, allowing for continuous improvement and delivery.
  4. Implementation: Strategy, Planning, and Delivery from the core. WfM UK enhances this with 9 Key Core Services on a 5-step continuous journey revolving around 4 Pillars.

Once these elements are in place, selecting a fit-for-purpose system ensures optimal automation and reporting, resulting in an efficient, cost-effective, and a well-utilised workforce.

With changes in UK law, effective WfM has never been more critical. Let's discuss your readiness—over a cup of tea and maybe a Danish.
