Data is like hidden money. When we stare down a spreadsheet, somewhere in those columns is an indicator on how to make money or save money. But data, unto itself, is brain-dead. Take time and attendance data as an example. Your employees clock in/out. Your supervisors sign off on time sheets and pass the information onto payroll for processing. Are you overstaffed or understaffed?

But the inner workings of a business are more nuanced than that. From manufacturing to professional services, there are usually multiple tasks assigned to a single employee. As a result of different tasks, some employees have different pay rates.

As cold temps blow over the Northern Hemisphere, we can’t help but recall the hot news this past summer: employer wage theft. The New York Times reported on it, as did The Los Angeles Times , and Forbes. There are two perceptions at play. The first is that wage theft only happens to blue-collar workers. The other is that employers intentionally withhold pay. Both of these absolutes are false.

My time is my money. And when I fill out a timesheet, it’s a private matter –– shared with my supervisor for authorization and the payroll department for compensation. It is not for all eyes to see. Yet, many businesses keep employees on a paper-based timesheet. In doing so, you are putting employee privacy at risk. That’s because timesheets are a treasure trove of personal information.

There are many different types of turnover; some are welcome, and some aren’t. When a consistently poor performer with a bad attitude is replaced with an employee who excels, that’s the kind of turnover you want to see. However, that’s not always what happens. Very often, turnover can have some seriously negative effects on the organization. For a manager making $40K, that’s $20-$30,000.
