GAF embraces workforce management solution

GAF nailed down an alliance with LaborSync to offer industry executives a one-stop labor management solution.

This technology is designed to help business owners control costs and enhance profitability by managing their workforce more efficiently.

“Our contractors have been asking for a labor management solution,” said Jim Slauson, VP certified program and services at GAF. “LaborSync’s technology offers them the ability to run their businesses more efficiently and cost-effectively.”

LaborSync is a cloud-based labor management solution that allows roofing contractors to monitor the time and location of their workforce from their mobile device. Through a downloadable app, employees can clock in and clock out directly from their smartphones, and the information is then delivered through customizable reports to the business owner. Benefits to contractors include streamlining payroll processes and facilitating real-time job costing. The platform also offers special features, including messaging, field notes and GPS location tracking.

GAF Master Elite and Certified Contractors throughout the United States and Canada get a 20% discount on the LaborSync management solution.

According to GAF, there may be some limitations on the use of workforce management solutions in some jurisdictions, so contractors should check with their own legal counsel before using LaborSync.
