The FTE percentage is calculated from it rather than entered: someone whose hours per week equal their job size is full-time.Job SizeWWeekly working time — The hours an employee is expected to work in a standard week. It may be less than job size but never more — entering more raises the job size to match.Weekly working timeCCapacity — A person's contracted week, less absence. Bookings are measured against their own contracted week, so 20 hours fills 83% of a 0.6 FTE and not 50%.CapacityWWork schedule — The working days, hours and breaks assigned to an employee, from the week the assignment starts.
