The overtime rate calculates the ratio between employee overtime with the planned working times in a specific time period.

[edit] Interpretation

A high overtime rate is an indicator of a temporary or permanent high workload. It could result in a higher Illness Rate and higher labor costs. It could be a reason to rethink time models or simply result in hiring new employees.

[edit] Calculation Formula

• Unit of Measure: %

Time account overtime and planned working times shall be counted in hours to calculate the overtime rate, only paid overtime of permanent and active (employment rate > 0) employees shall be considered.
