Task Description
I have been assigned by Paul Richie to solve a problem he has. The situation is that he owns a new nightclub called Razamataz which is located in the Kings Cross area of London and has been running for 3 months now. The nightclub is aimed at young people at the ages 20 – 25. The club opens from Wednesdays to Sundays between the times 9pm to 5am. The club’s capacity is big enough to hold 500 people and when full requires 8 staff behind the bar.
Paul divides shifts into 4hr blocks, some staff work for the full eight hrs. At present there are 12 staff and Gerry Smithz draws up a rota at the beginning of each week. Gary manages their payroll by hand, keeping a record of what shifts each member of staff has been allocated and the number of hours they have worked each night. During this investigation I am going to use various methods to solve the problem at hand.
