Solutions in Action

Real Life Results

Dental Office

Task

At a local office, staff were spending a lot of time on daily tasks that didn’t match their training and expertise. This was compromising goals for both clinical and administrative staff.

Results

Employee sterilizes dental instruments, prepares instrument trays for the clinical team, and keeps the children’s toy area clean and sanitized. With employee attending to these functions, office staff, hygienists, and dentists can dedicate their time to serving patients. This staffing solution better matched staff with their skills, saving the business time and money.

Action

Trillium analyzed workflow and helped the dental office identify particular tasks that could be bundled together into a new role. Trillium’s Employment Consultants used this specific task information to screen talent from a pool of job seekers. Finally Employment Consultants supported the dental office with training their new employee, including developing accommodations to support performance.

Salon

Task

A salon owner was struggling to maintain the polished look she wanted in their new space. To achieve her goals for business growth, she identified that her competitive edge would be the excellent customer service and high-end environment. She was relying on her stylists and her own time to manage routine functions. This was reducing her time to be focused on business growth and her stylists were struggling to provide the high level of customer service they wanted to give.

 

Results

Trillium met with the salon owner and suggested they create a list of functions that needed to get done so that stylists could be fully attentive to guests and the owner could focus on business development. It was important that any new team member have a positive, customer service personality in keeping with the company’s goals for the ultimate salon experience.

 

Action

Employee plays a vital role in keeping the salon looking good and customers have a positive experience when they arrive because of his welcoming personality. Employee stocks supplies daily, maintains the chairs between clients, handles the laundry, and keeps common areas in immaculate shape. These routine tasks make a big difference for the salon owner and her team. Her team is now able to book clients closer together, brining in more revenue. Stylilsts feel that their time and talents are spent serving clients rather than worrying about their supplies and space being prepared. Additionally, because employee was handling cleaning tasks on a daily basis, the owner was able to terminate a costly outsourced custodial service.

 

Warehouse

Task

A company was delighted that business was improving, but they quickly discovered they were struggling to manage the shipping volume in their warehouse. The seasoned warehouse staff were no longer efficient in moving product to keep up with the increased demand. The business was worried the only options were a costly relocation or to delay delivery to customers.

 

Results

Trillium staff toured the warehouse with the operations manager. Together with an eye on lean procedures, it was identified that a major obstacle was waste management. By laying out the schedule of shipments during the week, Trillium helped the manager identify peak times when an additional staff could be dedicated to storing the recyling and plastic to efficiently cleasr the area for the seasoned warehouse staff to maneuver product as they needed.

 

Action

Employee is fondly referred to as the “Boss of Clean” by his team, comes in four days a week when shipments arrive. He systematically sorts the plastic and recycling and keeps it contained in a small area of the warehouse, making space for the inventory and ensuring forklifts can move safely through the warehouse. With employee’s support, the products are stored faster which means overall customer demand can be met. Employee’s great work ethic and positivity also means that on days when they need an extra hand with loading trucks, they call him rather than hire a day laborer.
