Workforce — Required vs Available
Headcount nets out with a small buffer, but it is mal-distributed: Kestrel Park is short into Q3 peak while Cedar Forge burns overtime.

Why this matters
The network carries a ~+320 FTE buffer, but Kestrel Park is 31 FTE short into Q3 peak with overtime at 15.6% and 17% attrition — the top labor risk. A 3rd shift plus cross-training from under-utilized Brightfield caps overtime (~$1.2M) and protects service on Outdoor Equipment.
