We have developed in other businesses a labor matrix if you will, which identifies each day every activity and the time it takes to complete the activity in order to operate the facility ie., take out trash 4min, clean bathroom 12min, stocking 40min, cutomer transaction 1min etc. understanding not every activity is required each day. After totaling all the time requirements a labor budget is produced. From this we plan for the amount of labor coverage needed to operate the facility. Our experience in one of our businesses allows us to have single coverage part of the day, complete the activities necessary for the operation and still give good customer service. In other ventures we have found that even triple coverage cannot provide the necessary service. I was trying to determine what our return on investment would be given different labor scenarios, and I thought that someone experienced in the industry could provide some insight
