During the semester I would hire 2 staff members to work the weekends and 4 managers to work during the week. During the winter and summer sessions I would hire in total 3 staff members to each work 10 hours a week. I would also make sure I have 1 or 2 managers on during this time. This brings us significantly under the total funds received for staff and managers. With the left over $7,370 I would do the 4 following actions:1.) To properly and safely run the body shop with 4 managers I would need to increase the amount of hours per week they work during the fall and spring semesters. I would increase the amount of hours from 4/week to 16/week, here is is how it would lay out: 16 hours/ week x 15 weeks x $12/ hour = $2880, - $720(previous cost) = $2,160 x 2 semesters = $4,320 addition for year. New total cost is $16,950. 2.) Incase something comes up where a manager is needed to work for any reason such as shift coverage, trainings, etc. I would have 80 manager hours each semester put away. Note: these hours may not be used, they are simply to make sure the funds are there if needed. Here is how it would lay out: 80 hours x $12/ hour x 2 semesters = $1,920. New total cost = $18,870 3.) To keep paid staff and managers willing to work over the winter and summer sessions, as well as to increase the benefits of the job for interested applicants, I would raise pay rates by $.50. This would not have a significant impact to the business but will to the employees. Here is how it would lay out: Winter staff: $.50 x 30 hours x 4 weeks = $60, Winter manager: $.50 x 10 hours x 4 weeks =$20, Summer staff: $.50 x 30 hours x 15 weeks= $225, Summer manager: $.50 x 10 hours x 15 weeks= $75. Total additional cost = $380 New total cost = $19,250 4.) Finally, I would allocate $750 in the case of a need for emergency staff funds for any unforeseen reason. Once again these funds will not likely be used however it is always best to have funds saved just in case. Final total cost =
