Organising Your Work and Resources
One day to set your department's workload against the resources you have: people, skills, equipment, time. You learn to measure workload, spread the work according to skills, absorb peaks and absences, and organise workstations to limit lost time. The exercises use your real activity, in a workshop, a warehouse, an administrative department or a sales floor.

Frequently asked questions
How does it differ from "Managing Your Time and Energy"?
This day deals with collective organisation: spreading a department's workload across people and resources. "Managing Your Time and Energy" is about each participant's calendar and working habits.
Do we need quantified standard times?
No. Estimates drawn from experience are enough for a first workload-capacity review; the training shows how to refine them afterwards from simple records.
For which types of department?
Production, logistics, maintenance, administration, sales: anywhere a manager has to spread a volume of work across people and equipment. Examples are chosen according to the departments present in the group.
What funding options are there?
The training can be included in your training plan and submitted under the special training contracts. Depending on your sector, a GIAC can also help with identifying needs. We prepare the files with you.
