Staff Roster Conflict Solver
Untangle a week's roster clashes and coverage gaps before they become Monday's crisis
When to use it: Use when availability changes late — paste the roster and constraints, get options not headaches
Solve my roster for next week.
BUSINESS HOURS/SHIFTS NEEDED: [E.G. Mon–Sat, 2 people 7–3, 1 person 3–7].
STAFF + CONSTRAINTS: [NAME: availability, max hours, can't work with/needs supervision, award level if relevant]
NEW PROBLEM: [WHO JUST BECAME UNAVAILABLE / DEMAND SPIKE]
Produce:
1. A filled roster table (day × shift × person) satisfying every hard constraint — mark any shift you CANNOT fill rather than bending a constraint.
2. Fairness check: hours per person vs their target, flag anyone consistently getting the worst shifts.
3. Two alternative options where trade-offs differ (e.g. overtime cost vs a junior alone at close — flag if that's not allowed).
4. The exact messages to send the two most-affected staff, tone: straight and appreciative.
Flag anything that might touch award/penalty-rate rules as "check with your bookkeeper/Fair Work resources" — do not calculate pay.
