Abstract
Work schedules that successfully blend business, employee, and health and safety requirements are called “best cost schedules”. A best cost schedule is not a day-off pattern or a shift length; it is the most cost-effective method to deploy equipment and personnel with employee buy-in and specific work/pay and coverage policies. Best cost schedules can save manufacturers millions of dollars every year
