Kelly Fusion Digital Workers help clients
tackle labor challenges, improve employee experience
TROY,
Mich., April 4, 2023 /PRNewswire/ -- As companies
face economic uncertainties and fierce talent competition, and
workers report unmanageable workloads and disengagement from their
jobs, Kelly becomes the first staffing provider to tackle these
challenges by deploying digital workers in addition to human
workers. The company today announced the launch of Kelly Fusion
Digital Workers, the first product in the Kelly Fusion suite of
solutions that automate routine tasks and allow employees to focus
on more meaningful work.
Kelly Fusion Digital Workers are powered by the latest
automation software and custom-built for Kelly clients to complete
repetitive tasks. They can reliably manage data entry tasks
and new-hire processes such as background screenings and
onboarding procedures, for example. Kelly Fusion Digital Workers
ensure work is completed efficiently, increase compliance, reduce
risk, save money, eliminate mundane work, and improve the overall
employee experience.
"With this product launch, we have created a new labor channel
for our customers," Kelly Vice
President of Innovation and Product Development Ed Pederson said. "We are combining our 75 years
of staffing experience with digital tools that can have limitless
impact on our clients' ability to innovate and grow. For workers,
these tools free up time for creativity and upskilling."
As a leader in global staffing and recruitment services, Kelly
consults with clients to understand their workforce needs in depth
and determines the right blend of digital tools and human talent to
enhance productivity and employee satisfaction. Kelly's in-house
automation team, in partnership with leading enterprise automation
software company UiPath, builds each custom digital worker to meet
the unique workforce needs of its clients. Kelly then implements
the digital workers alongside their human colleagues and manages
their performance.
"The world of work is evolving at rapid speed. By pairing its
workforce solutions expertise with UiPath-powered automation tools,
Kelly is tackling some of the biggest pain points companies and
workers have identified," UiPath Chief People Officer Brigette McInnis-Day said. "Kelly Fusion enables
work that is smarter, more efficient, and more enjoyable. The
impact of this collaboration between human and digital workers is
truly limitless."
Kelly Fusion Digital Workers are delivering significant time and
cost savings. Internally across Kelly, 162 unique automations have
saved more than 650,000 hours and $13.5
million. Digital workers at Kelly deliver value by
completing many tasks such as certifying candidate profiles,
verifying background checks, submitting drug screening requests,
sending onboarding emails, ordering new-hire kits, and reporting
results to their human colleagues. These automations have reduced
the time employees spend reviewing results and have allowed Kelly
to deploy talent more quickly.
"Digital workers have been game-changing for Kelly's
productivity and overall employee experience," Pederson said.
"We're excited to now bring these innovations to our clients in the
U.S. and Canada. Paired with the
more than 300,000 job seekers we place every year, Kelly Fusion
enables workforce agility and empowers human achievement."
