What does your rotareally cost?
Five numbers are enough to see what your team costs per week, per month and per year. The check also shows what over-scheduling, the hours you roster but never needed, costs you every year.

Your venue
Sets the benchmark we compare you against.
Including casual staff and part-timers.
All staff added together. Not sure? Hospitality averages 21.5 hours per employee.
The average across your whole team, not your highest wage.
Your labour cost
€18.46 per hour worked including employer costs, across 300 scheduled hours per week.
Per week
€5,538
Per month
€23,998
Per year
€287,976
Against the benchmark
This is the dial you can actually turn. Not your purchasing, not your prices. The hours you roster but do not need.
Over-scheduling costs you per year
€20,158
1.5 hours per employee per week × 14 employees = €388 per week. That is 2.6% of your annual revenue.
And your own time on the rota
€7,020
3 hours per week × 52 weeks = 156 hours a year spent scheduling.

The benchmarks per type of venue are common rules of thumb from the sector and meant as an indication, not a norm. Every venue is different: a high-margin cocktail bar and a hands-on lunchroom should not sit on the same percentage. Use the outcome to open the conversation, not to close it.
