How to Get & Use Workers in Schedule 1

Schedule 1 is one of the latest early access trends on Steam right now, and it is basically just a sim game where you build a criminal empire through the manufacturing and selling of various types of drugs. In this guide, we will try to briefly show you how you are supposed to hire and make use of workers to make your life a whole lot easier.

How to Get & Use Workers in Schedule 1

Long story short, you are going to need to look for an NPC named Manny, who is found at the warehouse. There, you will be able to hire different types of employees from him, each of which have their own unique tasks. Your choices are the following:

• Cleaners – As the name implies, they exist solely to keep your work areas clean by picking up trash and emptying bins that are getting full.
• Botanists – These people will be responsible for not only planting stuff, but also harvesting and maintaining them.
• Handlers – The handlers are mainly there to help you pack stuff and move them around in your compound.
• Chemists – These are the specialists who work on the products themselves. Not only do they cost the most, but they also take on the brunt of the “hard” work.

The more complex the job, the more expensive their signing fees and daily wages can be. With that in mind, cleaners are the cheapest to have, and it is always nice to have at least one of these early on as you can easily keep them employed.

One important thing to keep in mind when hiring employees is that there is a limit to how many you can have at each location. Now, once you have hired an employee, head to where you sent them and whip out your clipboard.

Using this tool, you can manage employees one by one. To do this, simply approach them and use the interact button to start managing various aspects of their work and assignments.

The most important thing to remember here is that each employee will require at least one bed. Using the clipboard, you can manually assign an unclaimed bed to them, and then you can set them to work on specific stations around your place.

For example, a cleaner can be assigned to specific trash cans all around your building. A chemist, on the other hand, can be assigned to lab ovens or mixing stations, among other things. These are all written on the whiteboard at the place where you hire employees from, so take note of what is said there.

Finally, you will also need to ensure that there is always enough money in the briefcase that you can find on their beds. As for how much you need to put in there, that will depend on how many employees you have and what their specific job is.

Make sure to always top these up with a surplus of money so that your employees are always getting paid on time!

And that is pretty much everything you need to know in order to hire and use workers in this game. Remember that it is still in very early access, so many changes in the future can affect how this feature operates. Just keep an eye out for patch notes whenever they roll out to stay up to speed with any new additions or changes.
