TeamSense

Text-based attendance management for hourly workers

Overview

TeamSense provides a text-based platform for managing hourly workforces. It offers a mobile self-service portal accessed via text messages that enables attendance tracking, absence management, recruitment, and access to company resources. Employees can report absences, apply for jobs, and receive real-time alerts from their employers, eliminating the need for traditional call-off lines and manual logs. The service is sold on a subscription basis, typically priced per employee, making it scalable for small to large employers in industries with many hourly workers. Compared to competitors, TeamSense emphasizes direct SMS-based communication and hassle-free mobile access to HR tasks, aimed at reducing absenteeism and improving productivity and employee satisfaction. The overarching goal is to streamline communication, attendance, and HR processes for hourly workforces through a simple mobile experience.

アプリのダウンロードもメールも不要、Smsをチームのコミュニケーションツールにする「Teamsense」

Image credit: TeamSense. 労働力管理プラットフォームの Skedulo のレポートによると、2022年には世界の労働人口の80%もの人々がデスクレスワーカーになり、ブルーカラー労働者やサービスプロバイダーが最も代表的なタイプになったという。. このような労働者は、会社から承認された電子メールアカウントを持っているとは限らず、雇用主と従業員間の連絡を円滑にするために、サードパーティのソフトウェアをダウンロードするよう雇用主から求められることが多い。しかし、プライバシーの観点から、誰もがサードパーティのソフトウェアのダウンロードに応じるとは限らない。言うまでもなく、ソフトウェアの多くはコミュニケーション用としてだけでなく、労働者が職務を継続できるように監視するためのものでもある。
