A Single-Site Case of a Bakery Roster Board and Its Hook-and-Loop Tags
A research poster from the School of Emergent Priorities follows 312 shift placements on one bakery's hook-and-loop roster board over 26 weeks, and finds that when a tag fell to the floor the shift was worked by whoever picked it up in 66 of 84 cases. The University now treats a fallen tag as binding on its finder for every casual roster board it administers, with no swap, appeal or manager override.
