Case Study: TELUS World of Science achieves centralized scheduling and reduced overtime with Celayix Software

TELUS World of Science Edmonton Eliminates Scheduling Errors

TELUS World of Science in Edmonton, AB, a busy non‑profit science centre with about 80 FTE staff, struggled with time‑consuming, error‑prone scheduling done in departmental Excel spreadsheets and manual paper timesheets on a limited budget. They needed an affordable, flexible system that could prevent double‑booking, enforce staff qualifications for specific programs, and reduce unnecessary overtime; they selected Celayix Software’s eTime Xpress with an Amano electronic card reader time clock.

Celayix Software implemented centralized enterprise scheduling and an electronic time clock, now used across six departments with roughly 15 people creating or approving schedules. The new system eliminated double‑booking and coverage gaps, cut down on manual payroll work and overtime costs, removed paper time‑sheets, and provided instant reporting and visibility for HR—saving time and reducing errors for TELUS World of Science.
