Axe to grind

I have removed the sentence: "Many smaller businesses have part time workers who may be studying on the side or have other jobs they attend to."

In addition to its lack of immediately relevance to the article (it may be appropriate for an article on part-time work in general, or on employee scheduling), it presents a trend toward part-time work in the "composition of the modern workforce" as an employee driven trend, which is hardly the whole story. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 70.91.34.17 (talk) 14:52, 11 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Except for fixing the sources and maybe putting the "complexities" after the "features", Overall good Wiki!

You give a good general definition of what an Employee Scheduling Software is and does and how people and companies benefit from it.

I think the section giving other related topics similar to this one is a really good touch to help the reader fully understand and/or get multiple perspectives on the topic.

I suggest switching Features and Complexity because Features are more relevant to the definition while complexities just give more detail to Employee Scheduling Software's impact on the workplace.

Good Job Team!
