Labor Productivity Report

The Labor Productivity Report is used to review and forecast labor and equipment productivity. The report calculates productivity based on the hours that were required to complete a quantity of work. The productivity calculation is not based on dollar amounts; therefore, it can be used to compare productivity between jobs on which wages are different. The report can show either weekly or period productivity.

The report prints for all currently selected entitiescompanies in Job ID order.

Project Managers and Field Managers can use the report to plan for, and control, labor costs.
