• ATOMS is a web-based absence management and leave administration system that enables employers to significantly reduce the costs of absenteeism and human resource administration. ATOMS allows employers to easily schedule employees, manage time-off, calculate leave accrual balances and identify absence problems.

• ATOMS offers simple screens for HR staff and supervisors to enter employee information, schedule work and time off, track important employee information, and generate reports. ATOMS supports employee self-serve allowing employees to request time off, modify their profile and specify their work availability. The system (1) generates automatic emails to the employee's supervisor who then approves or denies the request and (2) automatically sends an email informing the employee of the decision. ATOMS is designed for ease of use. Its many functions are tied together with a consistent interface that allows supervisors to quickly process transactions and move on to the many other demands of their jobs.

Reduced Absenteeism. ATOMS provides employers with accurate, real time data and powerful analysis tools to identify employees who have absenteeism problem and reduce the associated costs. For example, BDI Canada (http://www.bdi-canada.com/en/) saw a 40 percent reduction in absenteeism in the first 9 months of use. BDI has over 300 employees and saved over $100,000 (net of the ATOMS cost) during this period.

Efficient HR Adminstration. ATOMS streamlines burdensome administrative tasks, replaces cumbersome manual or stand-alone scheduling systems, and simplifies leave tracking and many HR reporting functions.

Improved Compliance. ATOMS allows employers to simplify and improve the accuracy of many complex recordkeeping and reporting requirements. Most notably, ATOMS offers the simplest and most powerful FMLA (Family Medical Leave Act) administration of any product on the market. ATOMS manages the complexities of intermittent and continuous FMLA, including draw-downs of vacation and sick time banks. Leave administration rules for state laws are easily activated. ATOMS provides the tools to assure compliance while at the same time reducing the time spent on managing absences and leave administration.

The February 2003 BNA quarterly report on absence and turnover finds that unscheduled absences cost on North American employers of $200 billion annually. A small company with just 100 employees would lose 500 workdays, or two FTEs, annually based upon the median unscheduled absence rate of 2 percent (as calculated in the BNA quarterly report). The indirect costs on employers from unscheduled absences include the cost of replacement workers, lost productivity, and the impact on both employee morale and customer satisfaction.
