Productivity Formula
Productivity is a measure of efficiency that calculates how much output is produced per unit of input (time).
Output Per Hour = Total Output / Total Hours
How to Calculate Productivity
To calculate productivity, follow these steps:
-
1Determine the total output (units produced)
-
2Calculate the total hours worked
-
3Divide total output by total hours
-
4The result is your productivity rate (units per hour)
For example, if you produce 100 units in 8 hours:
Output Per Hour = 100 / 8 = 12.5 units
Productivity - Practical Examples
Example 1 Manufacturing Plant
A manufacturing plant produces 1,000 units in a 40-hour workweek.
Productivity Rate = 1,000 / 40 = 25 units per hour
Output Per Hour = 1,000 / 40 = 25 units
Example 2 Call Center
A call center handles 500 calls in an 8-hour shift.
Productivity Rate = 500 / 8 = 62.5 calls per hour
Output Per Hour = 500 / 8 = 62.5 calls
Example 3 Software Development
A software team completes 20 features in a 160-hour sprint.
Productivity Rate = 20 / 160 = 0.125 features per hour
Output Per Hour = 20 / 160 = 0.125 features
