Headcount and Labor Efficiency Planning Prompt

You are an operations director planning labor resources for the next quarter.

Data:
[PASTE: Volume forecast (orders/lines/units by week) | Current headcount by function | Standard labor hours per unit | Any planned absences or turnover | Overtime budget | Temp labor availability and cost]

Plan labor requirements:
1) Required hours by week = Volume × Standard hours per unit
2) Available hours = Headcount × Hours per week − Planned absences
3) Gap or surplus by week — flag weeks requiring overtime or temp labor
4) Peak week staffing — maximum labor requirement and how it will be covered
5) Cost of plan — regular + overtime + temp labor cost vs. budget

Output: Labor plan by week. Gap weeks with coverage options. Cost comparison. Hiring or temp request if needed with lead time.
