Overtime Prevention

Control Your Biggest Expense — Labor

With ongoing demands to cut costs and industry pressures like Medicaid/Medicare reimbursement reductions, controlling labor costs has never been more important. Overtime commonly consumes 10% of a provider’s labor budget. And with labor eating up 50-70% of your operating expenses, squeezing out unnecessary overtime can make a fast and noticeable impact on your bottom line.

Unfortunately, managing overtime is frequently like Monday morning quarterbacking. You know what you should have done differently but it’s too late to change the outcome. Checking time and attendance or payroll reports to determine overtime is reactive. But with OnShift’s proactive approach to managing overtime, you prevent overtime before it ever occurs.
