EAST POWER / STAFFING FOR BUSINESS

# Prepare a staffing enquiry: a business checklist

A complete enquiry lists tasks, workplace, people per shift, dates and required skills. Use this checklist to collect information internally and identify outstanding questions before the first conversation.

## Headcount and period

Separate recurring demand from peak orders. Provide the start date, planned end date and the number of people needed at the same time per shift.

## Tasks instead of general labels

Describe what a person will actually do, such as picking goods or operating a particular machine. Add required qualifications and language skills.

## Workplace organisation

Name the contact person, shift times, induction and required protective equipment. State whether accommodation or transport should be discussed.

## Check demand per shift

Record each shift separately: task — people — hours — qualification — contact. Do not confuse headcounts across shifts with the number of people needed simultaneously. Mark replacement needs and quantities still to be determined.
