In this article, we'll explore how Delta Driver LLC's practical and innovative "Headcount by the Minute" dashboard can revolutionize the way you manage your workforce and control labor costs.

The Power of "Headcount by the Minute" Dashboard

Imagine having a visual representation of your workforce's headcount by the minute on the following day. This dashboard makes it easy to see which employees are clocking in early or punching out late, or whether there are any no-shows or department changes. By effortlessly monitoring and understanding your workforce's adherence to the labor budget, you can manage your labor expenses as they happen, rather than discovering discrepancies at the end of the month.

The dashboard also allows you to pinpoint labor variances down to the day, hour, employee, and department. This granular approach helps explain variances and adjust operations accordingly.

How It Works

The "Headcount by the Minute" dashboard connects to an ADP report and visualizes data by the minute, including date, time span, plant, and employee roster. This comprehensive view of your workforce provides valuable insights into your labor-intensive environment, a major expense for most businesses.

Patterns in headcount typically show distinct changes from shift to shift. Gradual transitions between shifts may indicate unauthorized overtime or poor time clock practices. Key performance indicators (KPIs) like headcount total and average hours per headcount help you gauge labor scheduling and budgeting adherence. Other KPIs such as pounds per hour or headcount assist in managing direct labor on a day-to-day basis. The headcount by day KPI not only helps control headcount where needed but also highlights labor shortages that, if not addressed, can be equally damaging.
