   4. Change the Schedule Date to the previous work day.
   5. Find the first associate from the report that was pulled in daily task #3 (Performance by Employee, previous day) that is below baseline and click on their Employee ID.
   6. Analyze the Daily Inquiry: Why was this associate below baseline?
      1. Possible scenarios:
         • Look at assignments surrounding breaks and lunch. Poor performance on these assignments could mean the associate is leaving early or returning late from breaks/lunch.
         • Are time and attendance punches correct?
         • Look at first assignment of the day. Poor performance could mean associate extended Start of Shift activity.
         • Look for patterns of performance. Negative assignments all day could mean additional training is needed, or the associate is working at a consistently slow pace.
         • Were they credited with all of their breaks and lunch properly and at the correct time?
         • Were the breaks/lunch/indirects/delays slotted within the correct assignments? Look out for breaks attaching to an indirect or end-of-day activity that should be have been credited towards a standard assignment.
         • Identify outliers - random assignments with poor performance that could mean a delay that has not been entered.
   7. Repeat these steps for every associate below baseline.
   8. Formulate an observation/communication plan for low performers.
      1. Take notes with information from Daily Inquiry on "why" the associate performed below baseline.

5. Perform your daily walk-around.

   2. Hold the associates accountable to their historical observation results.
   3. Set goals for the upcoming day and week. Then follow up!
