摘要:
A method (Fig. 1) for scheduling personnel (e.g., agents) in a work environment based on personnel 'skill' levels. The method facilitates true skills-based scheduling of agents in a telephone call center using a simulation tool (38) to predict what fraction of scheduled agents from each 'skill group' will be available to each 'call type' during each time interval being scheduled (Fig. 2). A feedback mechanism is used to adjust net staffing (30) and skills usage data (32) between iterations of a call handling simulation until a given schedule being tested through the simulator (38) meets some acceptance criteria.
