General Project FAQ

2. Frequently Asked Questions – General Project Overview
Answer
What is Workforce Management?
Workforce Management (WFM) is a business function that involves timekeeping ("How much time did I work this week?"), scheduling ("When am I working?"), and absence management ("When am I taking time off work?").
What is the Infor WFM Project?
We’re working to make the tasks you complete each day simpler and more efficient. So we’re partnering with Infor Workforce Management to integrate our HR, Payroll, Timekeeping and Scheduling systems. This will allow processes to be more efficient and enhance collaboration amongst you and your peers as we work together to elevate quality patient care across our ministries.
With Infor, the core operational tools you use daily to complete your tasks will all be integrated on one system: Supply Chain, Finance, HR, Payroll, Timekeeping and Scheduling.
What will change once Infor WFM Go-live?
Because this project will bring several systems together, there will be a number of changes to look forward to once our new HR, Payroll, Timekeeping and Scheduling solution is up and running like:
The replacement of Kronos and API Healthcare tools
Reduced manual ways of working across HR, Payroll, Timekeeping and Scheduling
Improved ways of performing HR, Payroll, Timekeeping and Scheduling tasks across the organization
Why do we need a new WFM system?
As we continue to evolve our services to meet the needs of those we serve in real-time, this initiative will provide you with a single platform where you can efficiently complete your daily tasks like requesting time off and getting your requested time off approved through an automated approval workflow. As a result of this initiative, you’ll be able to focus on delivering our mission and elevating quality patient care.
