Interactive map brings to life company’s unique dataset and insights into how and what workplaces are doing to move their businesses forward

Global physical distancing has impacted hourly workplaces, frontline workers and countless businesses in unimaginable ways. Minneapolis based When I Work, an hourly workforce management platform that helps manage employee schedules, time clocks, and attendance for 150,000 hourly workplaces, with more than one million employees nationwide, has measured that impact first-hand, capturing real-time data demonstrating how and what hourly workplaces are doing to manage through COVID-19.

New interactive map shows real time hourly workforce activity; how businesses are reopening and moving forward with contactless scheduling tools.

When I Work launches its new interactive Hourly Workforce Index, an embeddable map that tracks hourly workforce activity in the hospitality, restaurant and retail industries, with day-by-day, week-by-week real-time tracking across Minnesota.

The Hourly Workforce Index shows growth or decline in hours worked at workplaces in Minnesota, capturing comprehensive real-time employment activity data, delivering deep statistical insights into the impact of the current crisis, and a glimpse at one new approach businesses are using to schedule their hourly employees as they reopen.

When I Work will be updating the Index to include statistics from hourly workplaces across the U.S and Canada over the coming weeks, and the Index will remain accessible to all as people seek to track the impact of workplaces re-opening and operating in new ways.

“Many businesses have dramatically changed operations and how they are planning for the future. Our index shows, for example, a 75 percent reduction in hourly workplace operations following the initial impact of COVID-19—and a 60 percent continued reduction today as they work to adapt,” says Chad Halvorson, founder and CEO, When I Work.
