The plan outlines measures to find permanent homes more quickly for people, freeing up temporary accommodation and enabling the city to provide more people with help in emergencies.
Homelessness officers have been working closely with the Scottish Housing Regulator and partners to streamline processes and speed up case assessments.
A target has been set of providing 4000 settled homes for people who are homeless per year.
Councillor Mhairi Hunter, Chair of Glasgow's Health & Social Care Partnership, said: "The council has been working intensively with the Scottish Housing Regulator to tackle the pressures on this vital service and meet the city's statutory obligations.

"Homelessness is a very complex and emotive issue. Every case is different and the council's homelessness team is committed to doing all they can to help people who face this distressing prospect.
"We accept that sometimes we have not been able to help people quickly enough and we are working hard to improve that. This action plan contains some very constructive measures aimed at streamlining processes, speeding up assessment of needs and ensuring there is a consistent citywide approach with all partners.
"This should help ensure people move from emergency accommodation to settled homes quickly - freeing up emergency accommodation for those who need it."
The plan is designed to ease pressures on Glasgow City Council's Homelessness Services and ensure the council can meet its statutory obligations.
The Scottish Housing Regulator will also work with the city's housing associations to help ensure homeless people are rehoused as quickly as possible.
