One FTE does NOT equal to one PERSON, but rather an ‘equivalent’ of a full-time person. One FTE is equal to 40.00 hours per work week. Calculate the minimum number of hours and then minimum number of FTE’s needed in each job category (receptionists, housekeepers, RDNs, fitness instructors, and business managers). How many FTE’s total are needed to staff the facility?
Please round these to two decimal points (hundredth place) as rounding too much can make a huge difference in funding for positions.
