What better decisions look like

These are real Workday dashboards built and configured by CRG for clients across HCM, Payroll, and Finance.

Time Off Trends & Utilization

These dashboards compare time off usage year-over-year, highlighting patterns in when and how employees take time off. They help identify whether time off types are being underutilized and uncover gaps in employee support programs.

  • Identify burnout risk or seasonal strain on teams
  • Evaluate effectiveness of time off policies
  • Understand whether employees are substituting unpaid time off for available benefits
  • Make informed decisions on policy design and workforce planning
Performance Distribution & Alignment

These dashboards provide visibility into how performance ratings are distributed across departments, management levels, and the organization as a whole. They help uncover inconsistencies in how performance is evaluated and ensure expectations are aligned across teams.

  • Identify departments with inconsistent rating practices
  • Assess whether leadership levels are aligned with performance expectations
  • Ensure fairness and consistency in performance evaluations
  • Strengthen calibration and talent management processes
Pay for Performance Alignment

This dashboard compares compensation increases against performance ratings, making it easy to see whether top performers are being rewarded appropriately. It provides a clear view into whether compensation aligns with your intended pay-for-performance philosophy.

  • Validate alignment between performance and compensation
  • Identify inconsistencies or unintended pay decisions
  • Strengthen compensation strategy and budgeting decisions
  • Reinforce a performance-driven culture
Overtime Spend & Workforce Efficiency

This dashboard highlights where overtime spend is concentrated across departments, helping identify patterns in workload, staffing gaps, or operational inefficiencies. It enables leaders to evaluate whether overtime is being used strategically or if additional headcount would be more effective.

  • Identify areas of sustained overtime dependency
  • Evaluate cost trade-offs between overtime and hiring
  • Improve workforce planning and resource allocation
  • Reduce unnecessary labor costs
