Capacity and billable time in Turkey

What this calculation answers

A utilization rate tells you the share of available work capacity that became billable time. For Turkey, the numerator stays simple: billable hours. The denominator needs more care because Turkey's Labor Law sets normal weekly working time at a maximum of 45 hours unless a shorter contractual schedule applies.

The result helps owners, finance leads, and operations managers compare delivery load across people, price project capacity, and spot underused or overloaded teams. A 75% rate means 75 of every 100 available hours went to client-billable work. The remaining 25 hours covered internal work, admin, training, sales, leave, or unassigned time.

Build the Turkey denominator

Start with the capacity base that matches the employee's schedule. A statutory full-time annual base is 2,340 hours, calculated from 45 hours per week over 52 weeks. On a six-day schedule, one working day equals 7.5 hours, so 14 working days of annual leave remove 105 hours.

Turkey's official public holidays total 15.5 days per year. On the same 7.5-hour day, that removes 116.25 hours. The net base is 2,118.75 available hours before extra paid time off, sickness, training, or company-specific exclusions. Weekly rest days, national holidays, and general holidays inside paid annual leave are excluded from annual-leave days, so do not subtract them twice.

Use the formula correctly

Use this formula: billable hours divided by available hours, multiplied by 100. For a four-week Turkey capacity check, a full-time employee on a 45-hour weekly schedule has 180 available hours before leave or holidays in that period. If 126 hours are billable, utilization is 70%.

Revenue value adds a second lens. At a standard client rate of TRY 3,250 per hour, those 126 billable hours carry TRY 409,500 of billable value. The revenue number does not change utilization. It shows the commercial weight of the same capacity result.

Move from one check to workflow

A one-off calculator is enough for a monthly spot check, a pricing sanity check, or a quick staffing review. It works when the input set is small, the period is closed, and nobody needs an approval trail before finance uses the result.

A managed workflow becomes necessary when teams need daily work-hour totals, approved weekly records, leave-adjusted capacity, and payroll review. Everhour timecards record daily, weekly, and monthly work-hour totals, compare project hours with working hours, and export approved data for review.

Frequently Asked Questions

How do you calculate utilization rate for a Turkey-based employee?

Divide billable hours by available hours, then multiply by 100. The Turkey-specific step is choosing available hours from the employee's schedule. A statutory full-time base starts from 45 hours per week unless a shorter contract applies, then leave, public holidays, and firm-specific nonworking time reduce that base.

Should Turkey's 45-hour week replace a 40-hour denominator?

Use 45 hours only when it matches the employee's legal and contractual schedule. Turkey's Labor Law sets normal weekly working time at a maximum of 45 hours, but a shorter employment contract or company policy creates a smaller capacity denominator. Utilization must reflect the capacity you actually expect the person to work.

Which Turkey leave inputs reduce available hours?

Paid annual leave reduces available hours once the employee is eligible. The minimum is 14 working days for employees with at least one year and up to five years of service. It rises to at least 20 working days for more than five and less than fifteen years, and 26 working days for fifteen or more years.

Do Turkey public holidays count separately from annual leave?

Turkey's official public holidays total 15.5 days per year and should reduce available capacity when they fall inside the measured period. Weekly rest days, national holidays, and general holidays inside paid annual leave are excluded from annual-leave days, so subtracting both as leave and holiday time double-counts the same nonworking day.

Does Turkey set a required professional-services utilization target?

Turkey's official rules set working-time, leave, and holiday inputs for the denominator, but they do not set a professional-services utilization benchmark. Each firm sets targets by role, pricing model, seniority, and denominator definition. A delivery consultant, manager, and partner usually need different targets because their nonbillable duties differ.

How do Everhour timecards support Turkey utilization reviews?

Everhour timecards capture daily, weekly, and monthly work-hour totals for payroll review. Teams can compare project hours with working hours, review Team Hours, approve timecards, and export PDF, CSV, or XLSX records before using the data in utilization reporting.

How does Everhour help compare planned capacity with actual work?

Everhour Resource Planning shows weekly capacity, scheduled time off, and workload on a visual timeline. Managers can compare planned capacity with actual tracked time, then adjust future assignments when a Turkey-based employee is overallocated or has available capacity.

Turn capacity into approved records

Track work hours, approve timecards, and export payroll-ready totals with Everhour so Turkey utilization reviews use consistent, approved time data.
