Abstract This paper considers the activity of loading and unloading cargo and passenger luggage to/from aircraft in order to determine the minimum necessary number of workers and the number and beginning time of shifts needed to serve a set of aircraft which request loading and unloading within a specific time period. Constraints which appear include that loading/unloading has to start at a predetermined time, has to be finished at a specific time, etc. The paper offers one possible solution to the above-mentioned problem. The proposed problem solution is based on dynamic programming and monitoring the work of each worker during the shift. The proposed problem solution is illustrated by a numerical example.
