Abstract/OtherAbstract:
What effect do schedules have on employees and department activities? Negative effects such as backlogs, poor employee morale, and absenteeism may be due to scheduling practices currently in place. The value of effective employee scheduling practices may be seen in areas of improved productivity. The process of developing schedules should include assessing department areas, understanding operational needs, choosing an option, and implementation. Finding a schedule that meets the needs of managers as well as those of the employees is rewarding. It is a win-win situation, and the benefits can yield increased productivity, decreased turnover, and higher morale.
