Shiftboard Wins Technology Award

SEATTLE – December 9, 2019 – Shiftboard, a global leader in enterprise workforce scheduling, today announced that it won a coveted silver Brandon Hall Group Excellence in Technology Award for “best advance in time and labor management.”

“It’s an honor to be recognized by the Brandon Hall Group for the initiatives we’ve launched to advance the strategic role of workforce scheduling in enterprise operations,” said Sterling Wilson, CEO of Shiftboard. “Shiftboard’s innovations help operation leaders manage costs and drive productivity, increase worker happiness and reduce turnover, and ultimately increase customer satisfaction through smarter workforce scheduling.”

Shiftboard received the award based on three major platform advances, all of which were designed to empower a more efficient and flexible hourly workforce. These innovations include:

  • Completely redesigning the user interface to enable workers anywhere, anytime access to their schedules
  • Expanding compliance functionality to accurately track and manage compliance with complex labor laws
  • Improving how managers organize their large, hourly workforces so they can create optimized schedules based on worker locations and preferences

“Winners of Excellence in Technology Awards are at the forefront of technology innovation. Our program evaluates not just the solution itself, but the benefit to the human capital management function, the business and the customer. That is the ultimate differentiator – whether the technology has a positive business impact. Technology Award winners pass that test with flying colors,” said Rachel Cooke, Chief Operating Officer of Brandon Hall Group and head of the awards program.

“An Excellence Award also validates the vision of the technology development team, the wisdom of the company’s investment in the solution, and the value the technology brings to the end-user,” said Mike Cooke, Chief Executive Officer of Brandon Hall Group.

A panel of veteran, independent senior industry experts, and Brandon Hall Group senior analysts and executives evaluated the entries based upon the following criteria:
