How is the time spent on tasks estimated?

Find insights about time spent on tasks in the Job Profiles report.


Task time is derived from the O*NET database. The O*NET program is sponsored by the US Department of Labour/Employment and Training Administration and is based on jobs in the US economy. Task descriptions and task times are obtained through surveys completed per job by job incumbents, job analysts and other subject matter experts. We use the data obtained from these surveys to derive the task times per job.

Important: The tasks and task times should be used as a guide only.  Actual tasks and times will vary based on the organisation and workforce.
