Did You know?
The Bureau of Labor has suggested that the cost of each employee who works at a computer during the day costs about $38.40, including wages, benefits, etc. * For every hour of downtime your company experiences, multiply that by the number of employees to find your true cost of down time.
For example:
12 employees x $38.40 per hour cost x 2 hours of down time = $921.16. This is a good estimate as to the actual cost to your business during those two hours.
While two hours might not seem like a lot of time, the associated costs could add up quickly. In addition to monetary losses, think about new customers you might lose because your technology isn’t working properly, orders that cannot be taken via phone or website and the additional issues that could arise because you weren’t available to your customers.
