There’s a lot to do with your staff aside from hiring them, and we’ll walk you through every step in the process. From setting schedules to boosting morale, here’s how to hire the right employees for the job!
How To Hire Staff
You can’t have a theme park without vendors to sell food, mechanics to repair the rides, or attendants to operate the attractions. You also can’t have pools without lifeguards, to ensure every guest is safe!
Hiring enough staff is the only way to guarantee that you’re prepared to handle a thriving park.
It’s easy enough to hire staff, and you’ll need to do it often as your park grows. To hire new employees, simply open the staff tab and select the employee you need. Drop them into the park to welcome them to your workforce.
You can fire excess staff members from the park management menu!

How To Schedule Staff
Every employee in your park has a schedule that they’ll keep, and you can manually adjust them to optimize performance in your park. The schedule ranges from 8:00am to 7:00pm, and you can alter their actions from hour to hour.
Their work includes being assigned to specific rides and locations or taking a break.
Creating Staff Zones allows you to refine the theme park and maintain order. If you don’t want Gulpee Rex four to be near the water park area, you can assign them elsewhere.
To access the schedule, click on the staff tab, then select the staff schedule. When it loads, you’ll see every employee’s availability, along with their scheduled break. You can extend their shifts or fine-tune the specific tasks they do.
For example, you can specifically instruct one janitor to only empty the bins while another only cleans up vomit from sick guests.
However, be careful with what you do to the schedule. Refusing breaks or giving your staff members unpleasant tasks can lead to negative outcomes.
How To Raise Staff Morale
Staff morale is made up of many things, including pay and working conditions. Having more than adequate facilities to relax in, along with plenty of staff on hand will keep morale high.
If your workers are swamped and you don’t want to hire more workers, you can increase the current employees’ pay to tide them over.
Morale can be checked in the staff section of the park management menu. The higher the morale, the happier the colorful face will look in the menu. If you notice someone having a bad time, make sure to check in on them sooner rather than later.
If morale dips too low, employees may quit on the spot!
To raise morale, give your employees more breaks and closer staff facilities. This allows them to enjoy their breaks more often and sooner, granting them plenty of rest while the park operates. You’ll likely have dozens of employees, from colorful entertainers to essential maintenance workers. Each of them is important to park operations, so make sure to treat them well!
