The energy and utilities industry relies heavily on field workers, contractors, and remote teams spread across multiple locations. Coordinating payroll, time tracking, and IT access for employees in the field adds complexity to workforce management.
Service disruption has immediate and long-term costs. It’s important to pro-actively monitor and maintain service and equipment, as well as being able to rapidly respond to any disruption to reduce short-term costs and keep customers satisfied.
Energy companies must comply with stringent labor laws, safety regulations, and environmental standards. Tracking employee certifications, OSHA compliance, and safety training across roles and locations is challenging without automated systems.
Dynamically adapting to changing business structures, reacting to the evolving market, and seizing opportunities can be difficult without data insights, reports and benchmarks, especially when you must manage day-to-day operations.
The industry often involves shift-based work, overtime, hazardous duty pay, and contractor payments, making payroll management complex. Calculating wages accurately while maintaining compliance with union rules and local labor laws is critical.
Field technicians and remote teams require access to specialized tools, devices, and systems, which must be provisioned securely. Ensuring secure IT access and device tracking while protecting sensitive infrastructure data is a top priority.
he energy sector faces a talent shortage, particularly for skilled technical roles and leadership positions. Attracting talent with competitive benefits and retaining employees through performance tracking and growth opportunities is a major challenge.
With constant changes in technology, safety protocols, and regulatory requirements, employees need continuous upskilling. Managing mandatory training and tracking certifications, particularly for field workers, becomes difficult without scalable systems.
