Staffing Calculator

The desk feels stretched, but is it a hire or a process problem? Your ticket volume and handling time turn into the headcount the work actually needs.

Productive hours are the hours a technician actually spends on tickets in a month, after meetings, training, leave and admin.

How to Read the Result

The figure is the headcount the work needs with nobody idle and nobody drowning. A fraction means you are between two headcounts: round up if tickets are growing or your service levels are slipping, down if neither is true.

When Not to Use It

Do not use it to staff a single shift or a single day: tickets arrive in waves, and this averages a whole month. And do not use it for project or field work, which is booked rather than queued.
