After thinking about this problem for a while, you have decided to recognize meal breaks explicitly in the scheduling of full-time staff. In particular, full-time staff are entitled to a onehour meal break during their eight-hour shift. In addition, employment rules specify that the meal break can start after three hours of work or after four hours of work, but those are the only alternatives. Moreover, you, the director, have to determine how many full-time staff will take the meal break after three and four hours for all full-time staff. Full-time staff are paid during the meal break. Part-time staff do not receive a meal break. Provide the standard form for this problem.

Time of Day 8am - noon Noon - 4pm 4pm - 8pm 8pm - midnight Minimum # of staff required to be on duty 12 16 24 16 Two types of staff can be hired: full-time and part-time. The full-time staff work for eight consecutive hours in any of the following shifts: morning (8am - 4pm), afternoon (noon - 8pm), and evening (4pm midnight). Full-time staff are paid $14 per hour. Part-time staff can be hired to work any of the four shifts listed in the table. Part-time staff are paid $12 per hour. An additional requirement is that during every time period, there must be at least one full-time staff on duty for every part-time staff on duty (e.g., if you hired three part-time staff in the noon - 4pm shift, you must have at least three full-time staff)
