Flaschenpost relies on a favorites pool of flexible staff

Challenges in building a pool of flexible staff

Flaschenpost Services AG needed a large pool of flexible staff at once to guarantee a smooth service and the ability to process incoming orders on time. The qualified workers needed to be available on call for an extended period of time.

In summary, the challenges were:

• An extremely short lead time for most shifts
• Their need for 20 workers per day over a longer period of time
• A preference for working with the same flexible workers as much as possible

How did Coople help?

To find the required number of qualified, flexible staff, Coople supported Flaschenpost by building a pool of favorites. The best performing workers who proved themselves during the first assignment for Flaschenpost were continuously highlighted and included in the pool of favorites. After only a few days, Flaschenpost already had a group of 25 flexible workers, whom they could rely on at any time for short-notice assignments. This set up also provides a good experience for Cooplers (our flexible workers), as they can repeatedly work in the same team with other Cooplers, which creates a sense of community.
