Skills Matrix
Who can run what, unsupervised, today. Not who was trained once. The matrix exists to show you which jobs stand one absence away from a stoppage.
Click a cell to cycle the level. Any task with fewer than two people at level 3 or better is a single point of failure — schedule the cross-training before it costs you a shift.
0 not trained · 1 in training · 2 can do with help · 3 works alone · 4 can train others.
