In assessing Te Whatu Ora's 2023/2024 Workforce Plan, it is encouraging to see the proactive attention towards the well-being and longevity of our healthcare workforce. One of the critical points I gathered from the report was the need to rethink our approaches to rostering. The implication is clear: the healthcare sector requires employment models and service delivery strategies that maximise the talents of its workforce without causing burnout. This is an area where technology can be instrumental, particularly in terms of AI-optimized rostering solutions.
Self-scheduling is a modern approach to workforce management where employees are given the autonomy to select their preferred work shifts, within the parameters set by the organization. This strategic shift from traditional scheduling methods fosters a more inclusive and empowering work environment. By actively involving staff in the scheduling process, organizations can potentially increase job satisfaction, reduce turnover, and enhance overall productivity.
