Labor Standards

A labor standard is the amount of time required to complete a task or set of tasks while meeting the minimum quality requirements. Standards provide a tool for consistent performance that can be tracked and measured. These established standards also provide defined direction to employees, so that employees know how their performance is measured. For example, a standard might be the number of rooms that a housekeeper should complete in a shift to meet the expectations set by the property, or it could be the number of covers that a server should handle in a meal period while still providing an expected level of service.

Use the Labor Standards screen to perform the following tasks:

  • Create, edit, or delete shifts for a job.

  • Create new labor standards.

  • Make changes to existing standards.

  • Delete standards that are no longer needed.
