Understanding Manage Labor Administration

In many countries, some, or maybe all, of your workers are organized under collective labor agreements. This makes labor management a critical element of legally employing your workforce.

Manage Labor Administration enables you to enter and track labor-related information for each worker. You can sort workers by seniority, manage layoffs and recalls, advance workers through wage progression, track disciplinary actions, and track grievances.

Manage Labor Administration Business Processes

Manage Labor Administration enables you to enter and track labor-related information for each worker in your organization. You can layoff or recall groups of workers, manage automatic wage progression in accordance with labor agreements, track disciplinary actions your organization takes against workers, as well as grievances filed by one or several people, including workers, applicants, and unions on behalf of several union members.

Manage Labor Administration provides these business processes:

Manage labor agreements.
Manage union data.
Manage layoffs and recalls.
Manage wage progression.
Track disciplinary actions and grievances.
Requesting works councils approval.

Manage Labor Administration Business Process Implementation

PeopleSoft Setup Manager enables you to generate a list of setup tasks for your organization based on the features that you are implementing. The setup tasks include the components that you must set up, listed in the order in which you must enter data into the component tables, and links to the corresponding PeopleBook documentation.

Manage Labor Administration also provides component interfaces to help you load data from your existing system into Manage Labor Administration. Use the Excel to Component Interface utility with the component interfaces to populate the tables.
