Abstract: | NS wants to introduce self-rostering into its company so that it can increase its attractiveness as an employer and therefore gain a better position at the labour market. Moreover there are many rules attached to the roster NS currently uses and by implementing self-rostering NS wants to decrease those rules. NS has initiated a self-rostering experiment for its engine drivers and conductors at four locations. Den Bosch, Dordrecht and Enschede volunteered to join the experiment and Amsterdam was asked to join while it is a bigger location with more complex circumstances. The main question for this research is: What are the conditions that NS must meet in order to design and implement selfrostering successfully for its engine drivers and conductors? In this case, successfully means that self-rostering is supported by the employees |
