Answer to Question 1

A crew schedule is prepared with the general information in the master schedule. Guidelines must be in place for employees to request time off for vacations and other days off. Planners must also know requirements of the Family and Medical Leave Act (FMLA), and employees must follow policies when unable to work.

Managers must consider how to use employees effectively, how to build flexibility into crew schedules, and how to schedule minors. Overtime should not be scheduled.
