Carlisle Tire & Wheel Company has licensed EmpCenter’s Time and Attendance, Accruals and Absence Manager, FMLA Manager, Activity Based Costing, Employee Self-Service, and Biometric Terminal Servers to automate processes for up to 2,200 associates.

The company is rolling out the solution to 500 associates at the initial site, and then adding an additional 1,700 over the next year.

Carlisle Tire & Wheel Company began looking for an automated solution because its process was primarily manual for 2,200 associates in multiple facilities, with each location having different requirements and processes. For example, each facility has its own calendar and rules for accruing vacation, sick and holiday pay; some facilities use hire date, while others use the calendar year.

At the initial site, the company currently uses a manual system for tracking the in and out times of associates. Carlisle Tire & Wheel Company is installing biometric terminals provided by WorkForce to accurately collect attendance data. EmpCenter will collect the data from these terminals and automate all other processes – from accruals to overtime calculations.

Their complex pay-for-performance incentive plans are increasingly becoming standard practice in manufacturing firms. EmpCenter’s ability to automate these types of plans, lower payroll costs, and automate business processes yields a large and measurable return on investment, stated WorkForce Software CEO & president Kevin Choksi. We are confident our solution will help Carlisle Tire & Wheel reach its goals of reducing costs and improving efficiency.
