Staffing assumptions
Forecast: 540 contacts. Average handling time: 6:00. Service goal: 80% answered in 60 seconds. 57 people handling contacts, with a 10% allowance. 57 ÷ 0.9 = 63.3, rounded up to 64 scheduled people.
Resource Management
See what is coming. Have a plan for it.
Your Agency uses demand history and your service goals to prepare staffing requirements. Explore what a busier week, longer calls or a new client would mean for coverage and cost before you commit.
Resource ManagementIllustrative
Use a consistent service goal
The sample staffing calculation needs 57 people available to handle contacts. With a 10% allowance, 57 ÷ 0.9 = 63.3, rounded up to 64 scheduled people.
The service target is 80% of contacts answered within 60 seconds. These are illustrative inputs, not a measured customer result.

Base scenario: Use a consistent service goal
The sample staffing calculation needs 57 people available to handle contacts. With a 10% allowance, 57 ÷ 0.9 = 63.3, rounded up to 64 scheduled people.
The service target is 80% of contacts answered within 60 seconds. These are illustrative inputs, not a measured customer result.
Contact-handling requirement: 57 people
Scheduled requirement: 64 people
Higher demand: Recalculate with the same assumptions
Expected contacts rise from 540 to 585 for the sample hour. Using the same service target and allowance, the scheduled requirement becomes 69. The new requirement is a forecast, not observed coverage.
Updated requirement: 69 people
Resource Management
A schedule that works for the whole team.
Your Agency builds schedules around demand, skills, availability and the rules your people work by. Shifts, breaks and time for development stay connected to the coverage you need.

Review: Keep the rule and the decision together
The reviewer checks the draft against staffing requirements, working rules and the coverage effect of each change. Publishing a schedule is distinct from preparing one.
Resource Management
Keep the day on track.
Compare the plan with what is happening now. Your Agency watches demand, attendance and coverage, works through the options and keeps you informed of changes that need attention.

Five more people are needed for the hour
Demand is 585 expected contacts against a forecast of 540. The current plan requires 64 people; updated demand requires 69.
C. Mendes, R. Haddad, I. Novak, W. Osei and Y. Tanaka are five distinct off-shift people in this fictional example.

Review offers: Check each person before offering the hour
Eligibility and estimated additional pay are checked for each person. Opening the review sends no offers and applies no staffing change. The activity breakdown describes the pre-change snapshot.
Current plan: The remaining gap stays visible
The Agency will flag the gap again if demand keeps rising. The expected effect of a proposed change and observed coverage remain separate.
Resource Management
Take care of the details that matter to your people.
Keep time-off requests, worked hours and pay rules connected to the staffing plan. Your Agency handles routine checks and brings exceptions forward, so requests get clear answers and timecards are ready for review or export.

Review M. Okafor’s request
Friday, October 16. The sample balance is available and coverage remains within target. Approved Knowledge Operations guidance can sit beside the request. Publishing an article does not change the time-off rule.

Timecard: An exception needs a recorded correction
A. Portes’s sample clock-out is corrected to 16:30 by supervisor D. Harlow. Friday worked hours become 8.0. The record keeps the correction, reviewer and source together; export is a separate action.
