Occupancy and utilisation calculator

Occupancy, utilisation, and the idle hours between.

Occupancy is the share of logged-in time spent on contacts. Utilisation is the share of paid time spent logged in. Sustained high occupancy is the clearest leading indicator of burnout in a contact centre.

The formula

How this is calculated.

  1. 1Occupancy = (contacts × AHT) ÷ (agents × logged-in time)
  2. 2Utilisation = logged-in time ÷ paid time

Before you trust it

What this model assumes.

  • Occupancy above roughly the mid-80s cannot be held for long without attrition following. The right ceiling is yours to set, which is why this tool does not assert one.
