Abstract

The scheduling of workers is very impo11ant in any organization. In addition, proper
scheduling of workers will enhance the outcome of the company. In this paper, the
scheduling of d1ivers for a bus company in Segamat, Johor is considered. By using linear
programming, the objectives of this research which are the allocation of number of bus
drivers needed in each day for a week and each shift in a day was calculated. In this study,
the problems were executed using LINGO 18.0 software. Here the constraints considered
include the minimum number of bus drivers required for each day and in each shift, number
of days the bus drivers should be working in a week and the amount of shift that the bus
drivers need to cover for each day. The optimal number of bus drivers for each day in a
week and each shift in a day was obtained after executed using LINGO 18.0. The result
obtained is then validated by comparing the result with the actual datas collected from the
bus company in which the result fulfils the company's requirements.
