Cost of Vacancy Calculator

Estimate the financial impact of an unfilled position using this simple calculator.

According to SHRM...

"Each unfilled position costs companies an average of $4,129 over a 42-day vacancy period—and the cost for revenue-generating roles can skyrocket, with some estimates putting it as high as $7,000 to $10,000 per month, depending on the position."

About this Calculator

Every day a position stays vacant costs your organization money.
This calculator estimates that cost using conservative assumptions. Actual losses are often higher when you factor in reduced productivity, overtime expenses, employee burnout, and customer impact.

Additional Daily Costs* Even one production worker can represent at least $150 in lost revenue per day. Multiply that across multiple positions, and the numbers add up quickly.

Assumption Note: Estimates are based on a standard work year.
(365 days minus weekends and 20 holidays/vacation days)
