Avoid Costly Under- Over- Staffing

Accurately scheduling employee coverage levels is key to profitability

Chances are, your organization has a general feel for the best staffing level goals when delivering your company’s service or producing a product.

But often that “general feel” isn’t quite adequate, and could lead to costly under- or over-staffing levels.

The direct costs of overstaffing are obvious, including payroll costs, wages and benefits, and also include the softer costs of sub-par performance of those excess staff members not fully occupied or engaged with their responsibilities.

Just as obvious, direct costs are incurred with understaffing which leads to excessive overtime, difficulty maintaining production or service levels coverage, and increased level of fatigue, absenteeism, and even burnout.

How to improve this situation? More accurate forecasting of staffing needs compared with projected volumes and better use of labor can lead to improved profitability.

Many companies manage labor costs and profitability by turning to specialized systems that track labor and schedule budgets.
