Introduction
In the current digital age, companies are rethinking traditional workplace structures to accommodate a more flexible working culture. A merger of technology and inclusion is illustrated in the case of Works Human Intelligence, a leader in integrated HR solutions, which leveraged Todoker's advanced mail management system to not only streamline operations but create stable employment opportunities for individuals with disabilities.
The Challenge
During the COVID-19 pandemic, many companies transitioned to remote work. This shift led to a backlog of mail and parcels, as employees were hesitant to check their mailboxes frequently. Consequently, requests flooded into the General Affairs department to manage mail on behalf of employees, creating inefficiencies and reliance on specific individuals. The lack of a streamlined process turned the management of incoming mail into a cumbersome task, bewildered further by the absence of a coherent system to track and notify about mail deliveries.
Selection of Todoker
Amidst this chaos, Works Human Intelligence sought a solution that could not only automate mail processing but also ensure active engagement of their disability employment team. Todoker emerged as the best fit, not just because of its robust operational history in supporting disability employment but also for its seamless integration with Slack, an essential communication platform used across the organization.
Achievements Post-Implementation
After six months of utilizing Todoker, over 2,400 items of mail and deliveries were successfully managed, resulting in a staggering reduction of over 215 hours of total labor across the organization. The implementation also brought about a significant boost in transparency; employees could instantly check the status of their deliveries through an intuitive user interface, effectively minimizing risks of lost items. This improved system also contributed to the establishment of a secure and stable workplace for disabled employees, enabling them to take charge of mail management tasks— fulfilling the initial goal of the installation.
