Chemical enterprises are often challenged with efficiently assessing their operational staffing levels. Unbalanced and inadequate manning levels might be financially adversarial and may even lead to (minor and major) accidents. This paper provides a framework and a roadmap to assist chemical plants in assessing and evaluating their operational staffing levels. The approach can be implemented within the entire organization or within a part thereof (i.e., a business unit or an installation). As a part of the suggested approach, an instrument is provided for evaluating operational staffing levels as they currently exist within a chemical company, business unit, or installation.
