MONTREAL, July 2024 – Zaddons, a leading provider of HRIS solutions, has announced the launch of its newest product — Shift Bidding. Joining the existing bidding solutions, Shift Bidding is Zaddons’ 9th solution and continues to exemplify their desire for excellence. At the forefront of innovation, Zaddons continues to adapt and meet the constantly shifting demand of the HR industry by bringing forward a product that will improve operations for schedulers and employees.

Zaddons’ comprehensive list of solutions is a testament to their dedication to meeting the needs of HRIS platforms no matter the barrier. With solutions ranging from scheduling tools to bidding solutions to a full employee self-service platform, Zaddons continues to establish itself as the leading choice in HRIS extensions. Seamlessly integrated into systems like UKG’s Pro WFM as additional tiles on a dashboard, their solution isn't a stand-alone product but an extension that keeps all data centralized. It's so integrated that it feels like a natural part of the HRIS, allowing managers to pull, transform, and save data directly within the system without worrying about third-party security. With Zaddons’ solutions, employers can bridge the gap between management and employees, improving the efficiency of their workforce.

“With the launch of Shift Bidding, Zaddons is reaffirming its commitment to innovation in HRIS. We are excited to add this tool to our library of bidding solutions as we continue to tackle problems faced by managers everywhere”, said Louis-Sebastien Laprise, President at Zaddons. “We look forward to continuing to improve our products and witness the positive impact.”

Shift Bidding is a tool that allows managers to optimize operations by proactively filling open shifts through employee preference bidding. This system removes managers' need to manually fill open shifts and enables employees to take on what works best for them. These shifts are allocated collectively and fairly to ensure compliance with organizational and union rules while establishing clear expectations.

Key Benefits of Shift Bidding include:

  • Collective Distribution: Allocate shifts as a collective to guarantee balanced distribution across the workforce.
  • Employee Empowerment: Employees have the freedom to bid on shifts that match both their schedules and preferences, increasing engagement and flexibility.
  • Automated Process: Automate and ensure that open shifts are swiftly and fairly allocated, reducing the workload of managers and schedulers.
  • Minimize Grievances: Ensures that shifts are allocated in accordance with organizational rules and CBAs, creating a detailed audit trail of all decisions.

Zaddons’ Director of Product, Nathalie Gentile, emphasized Zaddons’ impact, saying, “Shift Bidding is a game changer when it comes to workforce management. Letting employees bid on shifts based on their own schedules and preferences strengthens the trust and ensures a transparent and equitable process between managers and employees while reducing the managerial workload by 85% — time that can be allotted to more value extracting activities.”

Shift Bidding is now available to organizations looking to optimize their workforce management. To learn more about it, visit our product page or book a demo with our team. If you're a UKG customer, check out our UKG Marketplace listing for additional details.
