Daily Labor Chart

The Daily Labor Chart  is one of the most informative reports generated by LMS. This report provides a daily evaluation of labor use, relative to the established task standards for the positions in a job. It calculates the variance in projected and actual volumes, as well as job forecast and scheduled variances. It is used by management to review the operation, determine short-term action plans, and, if necessary, correct potential cost or quality concerns.
