Method
How the calculation works
- Worker-hours = crew size × hours/day × days
- Actual rate = completed quantity ÷ worker-hours
- Performance = actual rate ÷ target rate
Worked example
1,200 units from four people over two eight-hour days is 18.75 units per worker-hour—93.75% of a 20-unit target.

Should rework hours count?
Yes, if the goal is to understand the actual labor consumed to produce accepted work.
