Which of the following most accurately describes the problem?

ABSENTEEISM over Christmas seriously affected bus services in Nottingham. On Christmas Day, the

Bilborough route was operated with only eight instead of 17 vehicles. Frequency of some other services was halved. The position was aggravated by some crews leaving their buses at the stands without taking them back to the depots or completing their shifts.

Crews complained that schedules had been badly reorganized at short notice for the holidays. Conductors said thatthe lengthening of the time between each service meant that the number of people on Christmas Eve was too heavy to enable them to handle the situation properly.
