**The Project**

Woolworths Group has been on a significant journey to build maturity and maintain better workforce management and pay for our 200,000 team members. Since the first Kronos implementation, there have been programs to reset Workforce Management capabilities across Group and to ensure pay confidence, customer 1st rostering and improved productivity for our large team base.

We have invested heavily in our partnership with Kronos (now UKG) in the past 15 years, through multiple phases of the journey we have validated that their evolving product is a Tier 1 solution for Global Retailers, and critically to enable Australia & NZ payroll complexity, slated as the most complex labour laws in the world.

We will roll out UKG Pro to all Retail Businesses units within 2years. Transitioning to the new cloud solution (UKG Pro) ensures we stay in sync with advanced functionality and infrastructure (on premise to cloud) that makes it easier for us to meet our complex obligations and manage our workforce through automated and smarter processes.
