Guidelines -- Staffing
Staffing FTE: Count all company employees assigned full time to a function, including direct labor, supervision, administrative support and technical support Add in partial counts for part-time employees (seasonal employees or employees who work less than 40 hours per week) and for full-time employees who split their time across different functions
● When calculating FTE value use 2080 hours per year as the denominator. 50% guideline: Include a person in a function if they spend at least 50% of their time on that function. If a person divides their time so that they don't spend 50% on any single function, count them in the “Other” category.
Outsourcing Percentages: Estimate and report the percent of the total direct labor work for each functional area that was performed by contractors rather than company employees. You may use different methods to estimate these outsourcing percentages such as % of total labor hours, % of total miles built, etc.. There are text questions in the survey that ask you to identify the method(s) used.
