Spring Sales Meeting

[Ashfromoldsite]

Workforce is the term not the program. Any program or data being used is all target owned/created.

Per the internet:

Workforce management (WFM) is a set of processes and tools that help companies optimize employee productivity by strategically deploying resources and workers.

The future of scheduling and attendance and such if I had to guess will one day implement it all into workday. Workday has the ability and is used by many companies for such purposes but that’s just an assumption for me.

Actually what you quoted shows that it’s used by many companies.

Do you mean Food & Bev Closing TL, not ETL? My store has that, alongside two other Closing TLs and an ETL-Closing, but I've never heard of an ETL for Closing F&B.

Yeah there's both actually. They have a job description for it even haha

Sorry to tell you, workday is also not a target owned program. It’s used by LOTS of companies. I used it at Target then moved to my current job and it’s exactly the same.

I’m betting workforce is also the same app my company uses.

Workforce Management Software | Workforce.com

The leading workforce management software for employee scheduling, time & attendance, legal compliance, and more.

Im aware I never said it was. I said the data they’re using to create labor standards for workforce management is. I’m saying we will likely switch to workday scheduling eventually or something powered by workday due to how many companies use it.

Week of 4/27 stores will write 2 schedules and every schedule after that will be written 17 days out. Leaders have until 4pm local time now to post the schedules on Thursdays so you will get them a little later in the day but it’ll be a week earlier.

Damn, really? My store has literally every ETL role under the sun, even the super rare ones like Sr. ETL, ETL-Closing, ETL-Fulfillment, ETL-Food & Bev Inbound and others. And we're one of the top most high volume stores in the country, especially when it comes to F&B. The job code doesn't appear to exist based on nobody in the company on Workday having it.

So my store will post it and then go back and change it after posting. They love doing that. Anything to make metrics

Is this possibly a region specific pilot or is this a rollout? Haven't heard anything about this in my region yet and it seems like something pretty big to spring onto stores without much notice.

No this is total company, there might be a slight chance some regions are rolling it out a litter before another one but I can’t imagine that. At the springs sales meeting they just announced it to the total company, not specifying any specific region so as far as I would imagine, it’s everybody

I've been at Target 2 decades. We have always put the schedule out 17 days in advance. Didn't know it was not the norm

Some local laws have required it for some time.

Like the other user said some local laws require it but something like 90% of the company does 10 days out.

So, any other scuttlebutt about changes for 2025?
