Warehouse: Labor Efficiency and Space Occupancy

Warehouse: Labor Efficiency and Space Occupancy

Data & Calculation:

Warehouse performance can be measured in terms of labor efficiency and space occupancy rate.

Labor Efficiency =  sum of value-added activity hours / Available Hours over a period, for instance, month.

  • Sum of value-added activity hours = Receiving hours + Picking hours + Stock taking hours
  • Available Hours = Paid hours – Unavailable hours due to vacation and medical leave

Space Occupancy Rate = No of occupied storage spaces / total number of storage spaces.

Please note that space occupancy should not be higher than 90% for manually operated warehouse..
