    Definition

    What is Workload?

    Workload is the amount of work assigned to a person or team over a period, and a workload view shows that distribution so managers can spot who is overloaded or has spare capacity.

    Workload is about balance. It measures how much is on each person's plate relative to their available time, and a workload view makes over- and under-allocation visible before it becomes a problem.

    Managing workload prevents burnout and missed deadlines. When one person is buried and another has room, work can be rebalanced: but only if the distribution is visible in the first place.

    Atlas offers a workload view across projects, so managers can see capacity by person and reassign tasks to keep the team balanced.
