On-call cost calculator
Estimate what an on-call rotation costs in interrupted hours and pay, and how the load spreads.
How it works
Every page interrupts someone. Night pages cost more than their minutes, in lost sleep and a slower next day.
cost = hours × rate + night hours × rate × 0.5 + payQuestions
How many pages a week is too many?
More than a couple of actionable pages per shift leads to burnout. Fix noisy alerts first.
How do I cut pages?
Alert on symptoms users feel, and use burn-rate alerts instead of fixed thresholds.
