Workload planning

Guidance

To support managers and staff in applying the University’s Workload Planning process, a dedicated WLP Google Site (Brookes login required) has been developed. 

This site includes guidance on:

  • The WLP Cycle.
  • Applying the workload tariff.
  • Guidance for individual staff and allocators.
  • Relevant resources to support people in meeting wider workload demands.
  • General FAQs about the process.

Staff are encouraged to read this guidance in conjunction with the latest Workload Tariff document to ensure a consistent and transparent application of the process.

Using the WAMS System

A separate WAMS Google Site (Brookes login required) provides step-by-step information and support on using the Workload Allocation Management System (WAMS), including system navigation, data entry, and troubleshooting common issues.
