I work for the sheriff's dept and my boss wanted me to start work on a shift schedule for our dispatchers and I haven't a clue how to do it. The schedule that we have, I think works, but he wanted me to figure out another way. We have 4 full time personnel and 1 part-timer. Obviously we are open 24/7/365. We have 1 dispatcher working per shift. The full timers need 40 hours a week. I want to make it fair for everyone but I know that is hard to do.  Is there any software programs that will help? Any help would be appreciated! Thanks edited for spelling |

How would something like do: 12a - 8a 1 1 1 1 1 2 2 8a - 4p 3 2 2 2 P 3 3 4p - 12a 4 4 3 3 4 4 4 8 hour shifts, rotate shifts every quarter (1->2, 2->3, 3->4, 4->1), initial shifts based upon seniority (longest employee chooses shift, then next guy, etc). 1, 2, 3, 4 = full-time people P = part-timer 1 & 4 have 5 days straight 2 & 3 split into 3/2 straight P always works same period 10, 12 hour shifts probably will not work for you. |
