Is utilization based on total hours or 40 hours?

^utilization is not based on 55 in busy season. Denominator per week is 40. If there is a holiday or you take vacation this gets trickier and EY has effective utilization which takes those hours out of the denominator.

Lol true EY3. Mandatory work hours aren't the same as your Ut

I believe it's 40 hours. Meaning if you work 40 chargeable hours, you are 100% utilized.

Busy season it goes up to 55

Total hours is not the denominator.

thx!

Neither pwc or KPMG take out the pto or holiday hours. I know they were talking about removing them because it seems super unfair but last I knew they were included in your denominator.

Kpmg has utilization and then something called the impact score where PTO, holiday, and training are included in the numerator

PwC removes holiday.
