Clarification on this

Hi I would like clarify this:

I would like to assign a department for some of the workers.

Does it mean assigning one department to some workers or one department to each worker of the selected few?

Let's say there are many workers front of you, some of them without a department. However there are many departments and you don't want to assign the same department to all those without a department. Would you say "I would like to assign some of the workers to departments"?
