Abstract

With large corporations entering into the foodservice market, competitions among those foodservice providers became intense, leading to differentiated quality services in terms of portioning out the meal, its portion and waiting time, not to mention food quality. The purpose of providing foodservice is to satisfy its customers, to secure optimum level of profits, and attain continuous quality improvement. To have such purpose attained, all other factors affecting the foodservice should be allowed to play a role. The intensity of the work performed by the employees should be maintained at a steady level and systematically controlled. 'Service First’ principles upholding that customer satisfaction comes from good service should be applied at all times; customer satisfaction comes from the satisfaction of the employees. Customer satisfaction through good service will contribute to an increase in revenue which we get by subtracting operating expenses from the total sales, as it will lead to concluding a long-term supply contract or renewing the existing contract. To keep the operating expenses to the minimum level, it is important to effectively perform the cost control. Since personnel expenses occupy a large portion of the operating expenses, it is imperative to effectively control the labor costs. For this reason, this study will present an effective program for disposition of men with a large organization being centered around, where the number of people served at the mess hall varies greatly depending on a day of the week and a mealtime of the day.
