Schedules are not about shift lengths or how many days off
that occur in a row.
Yes, those are important factors, but many more powerful things
are impacted
by a schedule. When we look at how fast something is done,
how well it is
done, or the financial impact of employee behavior, there
is no doubt how
critical employees are to overall company success. However,
if your schedule
is not conducive to proper levels of rest, it will effect
your employee’s alertness.
The sooner companies understand how scheduling can directly
hit their bottom
line, the sooner employees will have a chance at a healthy
schedule. Alertness
does directly affect the performance and profitability of
the company. As
corporations ask employees to perform at higher and higher
levels, they must
give employees schedules that allow them to hit these ambitious
targets.
Without the right schedules, it will not happen.
