The results of this study indicate that the effective working day for a year is 226 days and the effective working time is 1,360 hours for five working days per week. Through the Work Sampling method, it is known that the total time for productive activities is 78%, unproductive activities are 11% and personal activities are 11% with a 30% allowance. Based on the results of measuring the workload with the Full Time Equivalent method, it can be seen that there are 16 employees with an under load workload, an in load workload of 13 employees and an employee with an overloaded workload of 8 employees. Therefore, the company can take several steps to optimize its employees, namely by transferring tasks from overloaded employees to under loaded employees in the same division, companies can also increase working time with overtime wages without having to add 5 employees to save company costs, companies can also conduct employee transfers, provide training and education to improve employee skills and knowledge, and pay attention to the employee's work system.

The COVID-19 pandemic has accelerated the need for flexible arrangements, including asynchronous work and working from home. These arrangements may be necessary to comply with public health directives and are manageable when few other options exist. It can be difficult to lead in an environment when team members have divergent core working hours and are not available for collaboration. This can be compounded by the perception of inequitable treatment of employee needs or preferences by management, which can further strain team dynamics. As the pandemic eases, it may be difficult for all employees to revert to a fully on-site arrangement; some may be unable and others unwilling. Leaders will need to consider ethical issues in reaching organizational goals in this new reality. Equity, diversity, and inclusion principles will be critical when balancing the needs of the individual and the team. Supportive arrangements and a culture of inclusion will be key to retaining top talent.

This study examined the relationship between human resource (HR) signals’ strength and affective organisational commitment (AOC) through the mediating role of psychological contract fulfilment (PCF). Survey data were collected from 460 manufacturing sector respondents. Structural equation modelling confirmed that HR signals’ strength and PCF positively influenced AOC. PCF also mediated the relationship between the HR signal and AOC’s strength. Results have theoretical implications, as well as practical implications for the management to consider fulfilling its obligations to meet employee needs and expectations through appropriate HR strategies for enhancing employees’ AOC.
