Description

Level $1$ employees are semi$-$skilled workers that qualify for overtime. Level $1$ employees perform

direct production of your product or service.

Productivity starts at $200$ units per worker. As productivity increases, fewer Level $1$ employees are

needed, which can reduce hiring and compensation costs. If you do not have enough workers to

meet the production quota, or insufficient training lowers productivity, employees may have to work

overtime to make the units required. In that case, there will be an overtime charge, increasing unit

labor costs for the quarter.
