Use a priority the floor will actually apply

8 de dez. de 2021 · 1 min de leitura

Five levels of urgency become one level by Friday. Three words are enough: unsafe, unusable, and everything else.

Priority is how you decide what gets done before the evening class, not a scoring system. If the list has five colours, people pick the middle one and move on.

Unsafe means stop use now. Unusable means members cannot complete the movement, but nobody is at risk if it stays roped off. Everything else can wait for the planned work: cosmetic wear, a noisy panel, a preference.

Do not let the loudest report win

A member who is angry is not automatically unsafe. A quiet trainer who has taken a bench out of service often is the higher priority. Read the status and the description, not the tone.

Rewrite priority if the first person guessed. A “cosmetic” frayed cable is not cosmetic. Changing the priority is part of the job of whoever reviews the fault. Leaving the wrong priority because you do not want to offend the reporter is how the list rots.

At the end of the day, the open unsafe items should be a short list. If it is long, you do not have a priority problem. You have a capacity problem, and the list should show that honestly.
