Understanding Supply Chain Risks: Workforce Management

As supply chains become more complex, so does managing the workforce. Supply chains consist of suppliers, contractors, business partners, and stakeholders—making it difficult for companies to monitor everything and everyone at all times.  

Management of your supply chain workforce can greatly determine your susceptibility to incidents. Incidents can lead to damaged reputations, unforeseen costs, delays in production, loss of assets, injuries or illnesses, and sometimes fatalities. Unfortunately, many organizations are yet to take the necessary steps to address this looming risk. 

What is workforce management? 

Workforce management is an integrated set of processes that a company uses to maximize the performance levels, productivity, and competency of its employees. The workforce management process involves effectively forecasting labor requirements and creating and managing staff schedules to accomplish a particular task on a day-to-day and hour-to-hour basis. 

What do I need to know about worker management? 

It all comes down to two things: the people and the process.  

The People: Workforce management is the job of everyone at every level of the business. From leadership to managers to subcontractors, every employee should be accountable for managing and monitoring their workspace. Third-party suppliers can also make or break you. When looking to hiring new suppliers or contractors, consider background checks to ensure their compliances match what you’re looking for.  

The Process: Having an efficient process in place that everyone is aware of is the best way to monitor your workforce and keep your workers safe. This process typically looks like a combination of rules/regulations with a tool or software that assists you in monitoring performance.
