Employee Schedulers Hear Every Excuse

July 18, 2013 | 20,012 views

Employee Schedulers Hear Excuses

Did you have an employee late for work this morning? Or did you hire a recent team member who had a recent doctor’s appointment that was scheduled, but failed to mention it to you? As employee schedulers, even our best employees pull a good excuse from time to time. And while you secretly grin from ear to ear knowing you have caught this employee red-handed, it’s tricky to know exactly how to react or what to say. You may be short staffed, or the employee with an excuse is normally a perfect team member with no past absentees or problems. When you simply don’t know how to communicate or respond under pressure when an employee calls in sick, you probably respond with a hesitant, somewhat concerned statement of “That’s OK. I’ll see you tomorrow.”

My employee schedule is due again?

It’s a tedious and sometimes frustrating thought, one that usually hits shortly after you just finish scheduling your employees for the current period. It’s time to work your way through yet another employee schedule. And it will happen again and again, and yes, again. Maybe you’ve been unable to finish your other office tasks for the week? Or it’s quite possible employee scheduling is simply taking longer than it used to because you’re not motivated or organized? Perhaps responding to a voice mail from an employee regarding a schedule change or accommodating a recent schedule request in the form of a Post-it note stuck to your computer screen is a bit more difficult to accomplish this week than it was last week?
