Fighting absenteeism with a Workforce Management platform
Sending out schedule updates doesn’t have to be a flurry of handwritten texts and emails the night before. It doesn’t have to be fragmented chaos with no ways of tracking delivery, either.

“I can’t tell you how many times I’ve had guys tell me they didn’t get a text or email,” Jason Sherwood, Senior Operations Scheduler at DP Electric said.
Absenteeism hurts Labor Productivity, and an easy way to combat it is with a Workforce Management platform. With RIVET’s Dispatch feature, you can send schedule updates to your entire field force in a matter of clicks. From there, tracking the status of those Dispatches is easy. You can see if they were delivered and opened, and monitor that over time.
Free Guide: Improving Productivity through Labor Planning
Last month, Andrew Aker from (tag) Interstates and Kyle Sutter, of Westphal & Co. joined us to discuss how labor planning relieves productivity fade. With their help, we created a new free guide for contractors that covers:
1 – Revealing Workforce Capacity mismatches
2 – Setting the pace for success in a job’s first 35%
3 – Addressing schedule compression early on
4 – Supporting productive and profitable exit strategies
“That’s one of the most powerful things about a Workforce Management tool: With the way you can forecast and schedule, you can really see every job you have under your contract. you can see exactly how that’s going to work out.” — Kyle Sutter, Director of Construction, Westphal & Co.
Webinar Training Series: WFM Workflows
Register for our webinar series for a behind the scenes look at the RIVET platform and to learn core Workforce Management workflows. These events are great for self-perform contractors who are considering adding a WFM platform to their tech stack, but also for our current customers wanting some additional training.
We kicked off the series this week with Pursuit Labor Forecasting & Backlog Management, with special guest Dustin Weller of Carlton Electric.
