Production-Aware Scheduling Tools

Manufacturing timelines are only as reliable as the workforce behind them. Paypro’s Workforce Management (WFM) platform helps you tie scheduling directly to output demand and operational targets. Managers can quickly adjust coverage to match production shifts or changeover times and use historical trends to optimize crew allocation week over week.

Labor Cost Visibility in Real Time

You can’t manage what you can’t measure. Paypro offers real-time labor tracking connected to job costing, helping you stay on budget by department, product line, or site. With dashboards that surface trends in absenteeism, shift fill rate, and training compliance, you gain the visibility to make smarter workforce decisions before problems escalate.

Streamlined Onboarding and Cross-Training

New hires shouldn’t have to wait to contribute. Our WFM tools let you pre-load training, automate paperwork, and launch plant-specific onboarding that’s ready on day one. And for existing employees, cross-training tools make it easier to track skill coverage across departments and reduce gaps when someone calls out or moves roles.

Empower Frontline Workers

Most of your workforce isn’t at a desk—but that doesn’t mean they should be disconnected. With Paypro, frontline employees can:

  • Clock in/out from approved job sites via mobile device
  • Access pay stubs, PTO balances, and benefits info on the go
  • Complete required training and acknowledgments digitally
  • Receive real-time alerts for shift changes or safety updates

This mobile access reduces HR burden while improving worker satisfaction and compliance.

Scalable Manufacturing WFM—With Human Support

Paypro combines powerful workforce management tools with personalized support. We help you implement a solution that’s tailored to your facility, your processes, and your goals—whether you’re managing 100 or 10,000 employees.
