A new approach to workload recording. A contemporary approach to staffing analysis.
The question of "How productive is our laboratory?" is one with which we wrestle constantly. The College of American Pathologists (CAP) Workload Recording Method (WLR) is somewhat familiar to most laboratorians. It is a system that could be better used in most laboratories. The recent introduction of a new approach to productivity analysis and of code numbers for nonworkloaded activities makes the system easier to use and more meaningful in analyzing staff productivity. Laboratory managers strive constantly to answer the question, "How do I show administration my real staffing needs?" Personnel productivity analysis is a benefit of using the CAP WLR method.
