Having your employees work overtime can be a positive or negative experience. Some employees enjoy the extra money in their paycheck but on the negative side, not everyone wants to have to stay late to finish a job and it cuts into your budget considerably – especially if you have employees who work overtime on an often basis.

One thing that definitely affects the need for overtime is not properly delegating work to your workers. While emergencies do happen that no one can predict, having a plan in place that ensures that the work is done when and how it is supposed to will create conditions where extra work is not needed as often and overtime can be, if not alleviated, as least lessened.

 

Planning

Proper planning for work responsibilities is easier with Computer Maintenance Management Software because it allows you to plan your work orders. For instance, you can schedule preventative maintenance well in advance so the work doesn't get behind. You can also save time by immediately sending out work orders without having your employee have to come by the shop to pick it up. In fact, with the application the orders are all sent electronically and the employee gets it immediately. All notes and data is included; you simply have to enter what you need for the employee to know. This also makes reports easier because every note that you made and everything the employee handles with the work order is on the software so you can run your reports.

 

Mobility

The other great thing about Computer Maintenance Management Software is that you can do things from home or somewhere else. You don't have to be at the shop but can instead simply log into the desktop and schedule the work, which will then be sent to the employee. Let's say that you left work and remembered that a certain job needed to be done – instead of the old way of calling someone or heading back to work, you simply schedule it through the software and you're done.
