Further- more, with regard to the time management solution ISGUS has managed for the first time to introduce what many of us already know from tablet PCs and smartpho- nes: the availability of an intelligent and controllable energy saving mode allowing for power savings of up to 50%. Thus, even in its basic version, the IT 8210 terminal makes a valuable contribution to sustainability. The new IT 8210 terminal is a particularly interesting solution for all those employees without computer access and who, consequently, were excluded so far from the “digital” added value offered by ZEUS® Workforce Management. As of now, even workers in the production area can benefit from employee-self-service. Via the IT 8210 terminal they can, for instance, request absences, make booking updates, view their shift plan or swap shifts with colleagues. Likewise, line managers are able to approve workflow requests directly on the IT 8210 terminal. The integrated messenger allows employees to view per- sonalized notifications and to retrieve specific informati- on directly via the new terminal. Thus, for the first time, digital functions are made accessible to all employees and not only to those already working with ZEUS® Work- force Management via direct access from their workplace or remotely via a tablet PC or smartphone.
