The impact of workforce level restriction on the performance of the linear decision rule: an exploratory production planning study

Abstract

This study examines the impact of workforce level restriction on the aggregate production planning problem. Based on the results of this study, it is concluded that the solution to the aggregate production problem appears to be the same regardless of workforce level restriction. Additional research utilizing multi‐industry large‐scale data is needed to test the applicability of findings derived from the current study.
