Effective labor rate calculator.
Three numbers from last month. See what you really earn per paid tech hour, and how much your posted rate leaks.
Effective labor rate = Labor revenue / Technician hours paid
How to read the result
The gap between your posted rate and your effective rate comes from discounts, free comebacks, work never written on the order, and paid hours with no job. Read the full effective labor rate guide.
What should I enter for hours paid?
Every hour you paid technicians in the period, including time with no job on it. That is what makes the result honest.
Is my data saved or sent anywhere?
No. The calculator runs in your browser. Nothing you type leaves this page.
