Workload Analysis and Workforce Requirement Planning in Operational Division of PT Solusi Marine Indonesia Using the Full-Time Equivalent Method
Abstract
This study aims to analyze the workload and determine the workforce requirements in operational division of PT. Solusi Marine Indonesia using the Full-Time Equivalent (FTE) method. This research was motivated by the imbalance in workload, fluctuating working hours, and the high frequency of overtime, which may lead to work fatigue and employee burnout. The study employed a descriptive quantitative approach with data collection techniques including observation, interviews, and documentation. The results indicate that the FTE value in the operational division ranges from 1.45 to 1.49, which reflects an overload condition. Based on the calculation results, the ideal number of employees required is 10, while the actual number of employees is only 8. Therefore, the company lacks 2 employees. The findings are expected to serve as a reference for management in making decisions regarding workforce addition or task redistribution in order to improve effectiveness and efficiency in the operational division.
