Case Study: Schuler Shoes cuts scheduling time in half with When I Work

How Schuler Shoes cut their scheduling time in half

Schuler Shoes, a family-run shoe retailer in Minnesota with 250 employees, faced a challenge with inefficient scheduling. Their managers spent 15-20 hours each week building schedules in Excel spreadsheets. To better forecast labor needs and schedule further in advance, they turned to the scheduling and attendance solutions from When I Work.

By implementing When I Work, the vendor's solution slashed the time managers spent on scheduling by 50%, saving an estimated 10 hours per week. This efficiency gain allowed the team to refocus their efforts on strategic planning and hiring. The platform was so effective that the Assistant General Manager noted it made the scheduling process engaging and fun.
