Effective labour management for a work-life balance

Ed Payne continues his interview with Emma-Louise Coffey on this week’s Dairy Edge to discuss all things labour.  Ed explains how a team in excess of ten labour units including family labour, full-time labour, relief milkers and seasonal staff manages the 470 cows with Ed crediting the team as the driver of high technical performance, work satisfaction and work-life balance.  The backing of such a strong team has also given Ed the opportunity to pursue a Nuffield Scholarship including international travel for up to six weeks at a time.
