- Chapter 6 Leaders Manage Employee Work Schedules - Summary 1.
Explain the need for effective work schedules. Managers must
schedule the right number of employees in the right positions at
the right times to produce products and services meeting quality
standards. They must do so while not exceeding budgeted labor cost
standards.
- Slide 29
- Chapter 6 Leaders Manage Employee Work Schedules - Summary 2.
Discuss basic procedures for determining budgeted labor cost. An
approved operating budget indicates how much can be spent for waged
labor. This amount can be used to determine the average daily wage
and the average waged hours per day and week. Managers should
schedule waged hours in a way that will not exceed these allowable
hours.
- Slide 30
- Chapter 6 Leaders Manage Employee Work Schedules - Summary 3.
Describe how to create a master schedule. A master schedule allows
managers to determine the number of employees needed in each
position and the total hours that persons in these positions should
work. Information used to develop a master schedule includes sales
history data, sales projections, and current trends.
- Slide 31
- Chapter 6 Leaders Manage Employee Work Schedules - Summary 4.
Explain how to develop a crew schedule. A crew schedule is prepared
with the general information in the master schedule. Guidelines
must be in place for employees to request time off for vacations
and other days off. Planners must also know requirements of the
Family and Medical Leave Act (FMLA), and employees must follow
policies when unable to work. Managers must consider how to use
employees effectively, how to build flexibility into crew
schedules, and how to schedule minors. Overtime should not be
scheduled.
- Slide 32
- Chapter 6 Leaders Manage Employee Work Schedules - Summary 5.
Describe procedures for distributing and adjusting the crew
schedule. Crew schedules should be distributed on a timely basis.
Posting on an employee bulletin board, including with paychecks,
and using email and intranet are some ways to distribute the
schedule.
- Slide 33
- Chapter 6 Leaders Manage Employee Work Schedules - Summary 6.
Identify common practices helpful for monitoring employees during
work shifts. Managers should emphasize the need to meet sales,
production, and service goals during line-up meetings, coaching,
and routine meetings. Managing by walking around and careful
observation of employees, food quality, and service levels are all
important.
- Slide 34
- Chapter 6 Leaders Manage Employee Work Schedules - Summary 7.
Explain methods for analyzing after-shift labor information.
Managers should compare the number of labor hours scheduled with
the actual hours worked. When actual labor hours exceed planned
hours, corrective action is often necessary.
- Slide 35
- Chapter 6 Leaders Manage Employee Work Schedules - Summary 8.
Review basic concerns in developing work schedules for managers.
Salaried managers can have scheduled hours, although they may work
longer than waged employees. These schedules can include on-call
alternatives so most managers will not be interrupted during their
personal time. Management schedules should ensure that at least one
manager is on duty whenever employees are working in the
establishment.
