Human Factors; Procedure; Company Policy
In my opinion Desk X on the AM shift for Date is flight release/task saturated. With the addition of 5G on top of an already hefty workload; I feel this desk Dispatcher could very easily lose operational control; if any Irregular Operations situations arise. This desk has ZZZ Functional Check Flight flights as well. So not only do I think the flights on my desk are at the boiling over pt.; throw in 5G; and ZZZ Functional Check Flight flights. This desk workload needs to be addressed. I do not feel I have or will lose operational control today; however I see this desk as setup for failure and could quickly slide down that slippery slope if anything were to arise. I did send a help alert for the potential of my desk needing help due to the sheer volume of work and daily work tasks. Factors that lead to my conclusion about my desk include daily weather/5G NOTAMs and material related/the shear amount of flights. The only solution I see as benefiting this situation is task reduction. More desk would equal less flights/tasks per desk.
Dispatcher reported they were task saturated and their desk has a heavy workload. Dispatcher expressed concern that 5G-related NOTAMs and additional flights increase the workload.
