Running large-scale events requires meticulous planning and coordination, especially when it comes to managing a diverse workforce of event staff. You might be dealing with security guards, ticket takers, ushers etc.
Traditionally, the process of checking in employees manually, with a sign-in sheet, one by one has been time-consuming and prone to errors. However, there’s a better way to streamline this process and ensure efficient event operations: the Fast Check-in feature offered by Celayix.
The Existing Manual Process:
In the past, companies providing staffing for large events relied on outdated methods for employee check-ins. Picture this: a long line of event staff (potentially in their hundreds) waiting to sign in on a paper sign-in sheet.
This is something that even Celayix software users have struggled with in previous years.
More often than not, these event employees are part-time and don’t work regular shifts. With that in mind, it may not make sense to give them a login for the employee app and have them download it!
Someone had to meticulously record each employee’s details and then spend hours manually inputting this data into the system after the event. This not only wasted valuable time but also increased the likelihood of errors creeping into the records.
Introducing Fast Check-in:
Enter the Fast Check-in feature from Celayix – a game-changer for businesses that manage event staffing. This innovative feature revolutionizes the mass employee check-in process, making it faster, more accurate, and incredibly efficient.
Benefits of Fast Check-in:
1. Real-time Check-ins: Say goodbye to the days of manual data entry after the event. Employees can check in as they arrive using Fast Check-in, and the system will automatically record their check-in times. This real-time tracking ensures accurate attendance records without the need for manual intervention.
2. Enhanced Efficiency: Fast Check-in significantly speeds up the check-in process, even when dealing with large numbers of employees. With fast employee lookup options and camera scanning features, staff can quickly find and check in employees, eliminating long queues and employee wait times.
3. On-the-fly Shift Creation: Need extra help at the last minute? Did someone show up that wasn’t on the schedule? No problem. Fast Check-in allows schedulers to create unscheduled shifts on the fly, seamlessly integrating additional staff into the event workforce.
This flexibility ensures that you meet staffing needs without any hassle.
4. Improved Accuracy: By digitizing the check-in process, Fast Check-in reduces the risk of errors associated with manual data entry. This means no more illegible handwriting or misplaced sign-in sheets – just accurate, reliable attendance records every time. This reduces payroll/billing errors which can be costly in more ways than one.
They key thing here is the speed at which you can check your event employees into their shifts. As a result, you have no more queues, no more delays. Large scale events are stressful enough, now you have time to focus on providing great service to your customers!
In today’s fast-paced world, efficiency and accuracy are essential for running successful events. With Celayix’s Fast Check-in feature, business owners and schedulers can streamline their event operations, save time, and minimize errors. Say goodbye to manual check-ins and hello to a faster, more efficient way of managing your event employees.
