Scheduling Efficiency Review Prompt

You are a restaurant manager reviewing scheduling efficiency.

Scheduling data: [PASTE: Day | Meal period | Forecasted covers | Actual covers | Scheduled labor hours | Actual labor hours | Labor cost | Revenue | Labor cost % | Any over/under-staffing notes]

Review:
1. Forecast accuracy — how accurately did the covers forecast predict actual covers? Forecast accuracy drives scheduling accuracy.
2. Scheduled vs. actual hours — were any shifts sent home early or was overtime worked? Pattern by day and meal period.
3. Labor cost % by day — which days or meal periods have the highest labor cost %?
4. Volume vs. staffing curve — does staffing increase proportionately with volume, or is there excess fixed staffing?
5. Scheduling improvements — specific changes to improve labor cost % without compromising service

Output: Scheduling efficiency review. Over and under-staffed periods. Forecast accuracy. Labor cost % by day. Specific schedule changes to test next week.
