High labour costs are a growing concern for soft fruit growers

Currently, labour costs account for at least 30% of the total operating costs of a soft fruit company and this share will continue to increase. To help with this, Priva is offering a new cloud solution for the registration of labour and production in the field; Labour Insight. This solution gives soft fruit growers insights into hours worked, production and performance per employee. The system converts all the labour and production data over multiple fields into comparable information. The grower pays per use, so they only pay for the days when the employees are actively registered.

Optimizing planning, budgeting and forecasting
The team leader registers the labour and production in the crop fields on his own device. Labour Insight converts all data including the number of crops, activities, harvested boxes and staff performance, into an online dashboard. This data provides insights at both team and individual level over multiple fields. This helps growers to optimize planning, budgeting and forecasting.

It is also possible to import the labour and production data into a payroll system. Overview screens make the performance of employees transparent. Labour Insight can be easily integrated into the daily business. The grower pays a small amount per registered employee per day.

Priva Labour Insight will be introduced at Fruit Logistica 2017 in Berlin. You can visit the Priva stand at hall 3.2, stand A-01.
