Schedule 1is a chill game all about building a massive drug empire. You start out under the wing of your crusty old Uncle Nelson, and slowly have to build up your reputation and customer base in Hyland Point. While you start out all on your own, slinging bags to customers in shady alleyways, eventually you’ll earn enough money to begin hiring your own staff. All of these staff members are managed via theManagement Clipboard.

This is a bit difficult to understand at first, as the Management Clipboard has a few features that aren’t properly described by the game, and sometimes you might find that your workers just aren’t working for whatever reason.

Management Clipboard with different grow tents, beds, and storage on it - a clipboard for managing your workers in Schedule 1.

How To Get The Management Clipboard And Hire Staff

Staff are hired at the illegal warehouse, which you unlock by following the main story quest and reachingHoodlum V.This level will allow you to enter the illegal warehouse and purchase the ingredients you need for meth, a range of weapons, and Manny the Fixer - this is the guy you buy your staff from.

You can only use cash in the illegal warehouse. There is an ATM inside, though.

Once you purchase a staff member, you need to choose which property you want them assigned to. At the start of the game, you’ll only have access to the sweatshop, but as you progress you’ll unlock the Bungalow, Barn, and Docks.

How To Assign Workers Using The Management Clipboard

The Management Clipboard lets you click on a worker, then select the work stations you want to assign them to.

For example, for a Cleaner, you can assign them bins to empty. For a Botanist, you need to select the grow tents and supply storage that they’ll use.

Every workermust havea bed. You can place beds in any property you own, but it often makes sense to have the beds as close to the work station as possible - you will need to refill the cash at the end of their bed daily, or stock up plenty of cash in one go, otherwise your employee will not work.

Much of using workers effectively will come from efficiently establishing a supply network. For example, Botanists will notpackagetheir product. For this you will need Handlers. Chemists and Botanists will both produce so much product that you might need to double the number of Handlers to collect their wares.

Ideally, you will want each property to produce a different type of drug. Or, you could just focus on the highest-value drug currently available to you. Generally, in the current endgame, that’sCocaine.However, you will needBotanists, Chemists, HandlersandCleanersto run a properly efficient cocaine business.

You will spend most of your time just ordering supplies and collecting deliveries. Handlers will help you move those supplies onto their assigned storage shelves, but there is currently no product manager or delivery manager to handle the task of ordering supplies.
