Does it save money to pay them overtime? If so it’s something to look into. There are other factors to consider such as quality of work/burnout. If the overtime employees are burnt out and exhausted, work suffers. These are the kinds of things we need to look at. The simpleton answer is “cut, cut, cut…. Don’t hire more people”, but, if it actually saves, why wouldn’t you?
It’s difficult as an outsider to know the specific answers to a question like that, I don’t have access to all the information. Some companies it makes sense to hire more, some it doesn’t.
