In-depth Use Case / Real-world Example

Labor Overtime Rate tracks the proportion of labor hours worked beyond the standard working hours. For example, if 200 hours of overtime are worked out of 1,000 total hours, the overtime rate is 20%. Excessive overtime can indicate understaffing or inefficient scheduling, which increases labor costs. Reducing overtime can help optimize labor costs and improve work-life balance for employees.
