How We Assess Workload Health

Utilization = committed hours / capacity hours. The thresholds are:

  • 0-75% — Healthy. Room for unplanned work, learning, and thinking time.
  • 76-90% — At capacity. Any new task will displace something else.
  • 91%+ — Overloaded. Burnout risk. Quality and speed both decline.

Research (DeMarco & Lister, "Peopleware") shows that optimal sustained utilization is 70-80%. Above 85%, context-switching costs grow exponentially. At 100%, there\'s zero capacity to handle interruptions, bugs, or helping teammates — all of which happen daily.
