CNCentral > Entering Labor Hours

Entering labor hours for each meal session for each day of the week is a best practice so a district can understand how many Meals Per Labor Hour (MPLH) they serve which is an important Key Performance Indicator (KPI). When each building in a district enters Labor Hours into CNCentral, CNCentral will automatically calculate MPLH by the building and this information is available in the KPI's module.
