Operational Planning Approach Contingenc y CHRISTMAS CASUALS Angard / Agency Regular Usage Overtime and Part Time to Full Time Permanent Staffing Planned and ad-hoc short term agency usage/attrition or waiting list True Christmas Uplift Stable yet flexible Further guidance will be provided at the planning workshops late June/early July
Operational Planning Considerations – what has been applied….. Some Units did not included their Angard numbers in their initial plans despite having a current supply. All pay rates have been reviewed and increased where appropriate. The use of Hubs has opened up the attractive PT shifts to support the attraction of the year old market but many MC’s have maintained an approach of FT, 6 DoW attendances. East has already identified their contingency Agency orders All units have taken into account the need to over offer and have built in the suggested attrition rates All regions attended the deep dive sessions and made adjustments to the plan accordingly 9
