Question

We have 8 FT employees and 1 supervisor. we are looking to work 4-10 hrs shifts with 3 days off. Help please

Answer 1

I need more information, I think.

Mon through Saturday??  Hours?  

How many people do you need or is it pretty evenly spread?

This sounds like a situation at my mom's work and they made it work out as far as I can tell from what she says. There do seem to be problems but not with the schedule, just people with different skill levels.

Answer 2

Work  7 am to 6PM w/ an hour for lunch, ( or 7 to 530 with 1`/2 hr for lunch) Mon thru Thurs.

    If you have to be open 5 days a week,  then promote someone to group leader who will cover for the supervisor when he is off.  Then, people can be given off 1 day a week depending on  seniority.

Once you go to a 10-4 schedule, you will never want to go back to 5 days a week.
