Compare your thinking against more than 20,000 shift worker responses drawn from hundreds of 24/7 operations. Four minutes, eight questions, immediate results. No email required.
Every shift operations leader makes daily decisions based on what they believe about their workforce — who wants overtime, who doesn’t, what employees value, how they feel about the schedule they’re working.
Some of those beliefs are accurate. Some aren’t. The tricky part is knowing which is which.
This short exercise lets you compare your instincts to patterns drawn from our benchmark database — more than 20,000 shift worker responses across hundreds of 24/7 operations. You’ll see where your thinking aligns with what shift workers across North America actually say, and, just as importantly, where the honest answer for your specific facility remains an open question.
Takes about four minutes. Free. No contact information required.
