WorkJam Announces the Latest Release of the WorkJam Digital Workplace Platform with Enhanced Strategic Workforce Communication
NEW YORK (PRWEB) January 15, 2018 -- Today at the NRF Retail Big Show, WorkJam unveiled the latest version of its Digital Workplace Solution with major enhancements to its communication, training, surveys and channels capabilities. This latest release further expands WorkJam’s offering with an end-to-end solution to enable a digital workplace for not only customer-facing employees, but the entire organization.
“We’re excited about this latest release and the impact it will have on our customers and their workforces,” said Steven Kramer, CEO at WorkJam. “These new capabilities go beyond engaging frontline employees, they connect the whole organization. Merchandising, human resources and store operations are finally getting together around a single platform and making strategic decisions.”
Included in this latest release are features such as targeted micro-training with time tracking for off-shift training compensation that is improving compliance and reducing the time and cost of onboarding. Other features include enhancements such as associate level task management communication, allowing head office, district and local managers to assign tasks in steps to either a specific shift or directly to an associate.
This release also includes enhancements to WorkJam’s targeted communications features, enabling all levels of an organization to target communications to specific groups of employees based on any available criteria. This capability can drive more tailored campaign execution, more quickly deliver on strategic initiatives, enhance the enterprise’s ability to become more collaborative and allows the employee to truly take part in unique and relevant communication cycles.
“Target AU is proud to be a leader in the Employee Engagement space. Using a Digital Workplace solution like WorkJam has enabled us to connect and collaborate with our team members like never before,” said Stewart MacDonald, Head of Simpler Stores at Target Australia.

Target Australia deployed WorkJam within 3 months, integrated with its Kronos Workforce Management System.
