Frequently Asked Questions

This course focuses on managing multiple shifts effectively in 24/7 operations. It connects shift management with the broader goal of operational excellence. The training is centred on strengthening the management of work that continues across different shifts.

This course is designed for Multishift Operations Managers, Plant Managers, Production Managers, Manufacturing Managers, Shift Managers and Operations Supervisors. When unmanaged, these issues can restrict throughput, increase waste and compromise workplace safety.

The Achieving Operational Excellence in Multishift Management training course provides practical methods for running safe, efficient and consistent operations around the clock. It addresses the distinct challenges of multiple-shift working, including fatigue, communication gaps and operational inefficiencies.

Yes. The Achieving Operational Excellence in Multishift Management training course begins by examining the distinctive demands of multishift operations, including supervisory responsibilities, shift patterns, continuity and effective handovers. The programme covers Dealing with People Issues on Shift.

You will learn about shift management in the context of continuous, 24/7 operations. The course explores how effective management across multiple shifts supports operational excellence. Its central aim is to help participants master the management of multishift working environments.

Key outcomes of this course include: recognise the challenges and complexities involved in operating shifts around the clock; determine practical approaches for minimising operational risks arising from fatigue and shift handovers; compare their facility’s performance with world-class operations and examine alternative shift patterns. When unmanaged, these issues can restrict throughput, increase waste and compromise workplace safety.

Yes, the course is explicitly focused on 24/7 operations. It addresses multishift management, making it relevant where work continues across successive shifts. The training considers shift management within the wider objective of operational excellence.
Multishift management is central to operations that continue across multiple working periods. This course positions effective shift management as a foundation for pursuing operational excellence in a 24/7 environment. It focuses on the management of continuous operations rather than a single-shift setting.
