Built for small employers pricing a crew only
Labor cost software that works the figure on the page from your own payroll: the loaded cost of an hour with the taxes and benefits on top, labor as a share of revenue against your target, and a crew's hours on a job at the loaded rate with your markup. Free, no account. Pro keeps every loaded rate and every job's labor against the record.
BurdenRateLedger Pro is $49 per month for your whole crew, billed monthly.
Labor burden calculator
Load an hour of labor: the wage, employer payroll taxes at your share, benefits and other costs per hour worked, the loaded cost and the burden rate.
Try the free labor burden calculatorFree to use. No account, no card, no trial clock.
The tools are free forever. Pro turns them into the ledger: every employee's loaded rate kept and dated, every job's crew hours and labor price filed against it, your name and logo on the sheet, no watermark, and an export when the accountant or the bonding agent asks.

One product, three jobs
A $25 wage with 10% employer payroll taxes and $4 an hour of benefits and insurance is a $31.50 hour, a 26% burden, worked on the page before the crew is quoted at the wage and the margin quietly goes.
$18,000 of loaded labor on $60,000 of revenue is 30%; at a 28% target the revenue allows $16,800, so labor ran $1,200 over. Three figures, the same arithmetic every period, no industry number asserted.
Loaded rates are kept and dated against the employee; each job carries its crew hours, its labor cost and its price, so the question about what the labor on the March job actually cost has the sheet to hand. Everything exports.
