Abstract
Nowadays, many healthcare organizations want to provide a better working environment by taking into consideration the request and recommendation of each staff member. While providing this request and the recommendation, the service should be done without interruption. In this study, a goal programming model was developed to optimize the monthly work plans, taking into consideration the special permission requests of nurses working in a hospital. In the developed model, the working days of the nurses were tried to be distributed as balanced as possible. The generated mathematical model is solved with ILOG Cplex Optimization program.
