Overview
Workload measured from real operations
Traditional performance reports simply count each employee’s operations per unit of time. Meson Labor Management goes further – it considers every factor that affects efficiency and calculates workload scientifically, so warehouse teams can evaluate performance fairly and plan staffing with confidence.
- Workload and efficiency extracted automatically from WMS operations
- Collaborative roles, shifts and work groups included
- Standard labor dashboards and reports preset
5M1EMan, machine, material, method, measurement and environment – all factored in.
Labor challenges, solved
Performance measured fairly
Traditional reports count operations per hour and miss the realities of warehouse work. Meson Labor Management closes those gaps.
1
Effective work time
Shifts, breaks and leave-post events are tracked, so only real working time is measured.
2
Offline work
Non-system roles such as handlers and forklift drivers are bound to system operators, so their work counts too.
3
Function switching
Efficiency tracking restarts automatically when an operator switches function or position.
4
Multi-role tasks
Collaboration teams and collaborative clock-ins share workload fairly across partners.
5
Goods types & zones
Workload can be weighted by goods type and work zone for fairer comparison.
6
Simple counts
Units by case, piece, pallet, order or line reflect the true effort behind each task.
Capabilities
Everything needed to manage warehouse labor
Eight capabilities cover the full labor flow – from defining positions and functions to scheduling, dashboards, staffing forecasts and task dispatch.
01
Job positions
- Positions defined by warehouse operation
- Multi-warehouse support
- Same position, different functions
02
Labor functions
- Choose which functions to track
- Standard functions preset, custom supported
- Units by each, case, pallet, order or line
03
Function mapping
- Functions mapped to positions
- Tracking by goods type and work zone
- Restart on owner, order or wave type change
04
Leave post
- Automatic end at breaks and shift changes
- Restart on role change
- One-tap Leave Post for operators
05
Collaboration
- Collaboration teams for fixed partners
- Collaborative clock-in for temporary partners
- Packers, checkers, forklift drivers and handlers
06
Scheduling
- Work calendars and workdays
- Shifts with break periods
- Work groups bound to employee accounts
07
Dashboards
- Preset labor dashboards and reports
- Real-time role performance
- Bottleneck analysis
08
Forecast & dispatch
- Staffing forecast per function
- Future efficiency targets
- Task push and staff dispatch
How it works
From warehouse operations to better decisions
Meson Labor Management takes data from everyday warehouse work and turns it into workload, dashboards, forecasts and task dispatch.
Warehouse operations
- Scan receiving
- Putaway
- Pick & sort
- Outbound check
- Shifts
- Work groups

Meson Labor Management
- Workload extraction
- Dashboards
- Staffing forecast
- Task dispatch

Outcomes
- Fair performance evaluation
- Higher efficiency
- Lower labor cost
Better together
Pair Labor Management with Meson WMS
Labor Management extracts workload directly from Meson WMS operations – scan receiving, putaway, picking and outbound checks – so performance data is always based on real work.
- Workload from real WMS transactions
- Task dispatch back into operations
- On-premise, Cloud or SaaS
