Workload Balance
Helps identify burnout risks and ensure fair distribution of work across the team.
Burnout Risk
Each contributor is assessed individually with one of three risk levels:
| Level | Meaning |
|---|---|
| Low | Healthy workload, good balance |
| Medium | Approaching limits, monitor closely |
| High | At risk, needs immediate attention |
Factors: PR volume authored and reviewed, commits per day, work distribution across repos, review load.
Workload Distribution
Gini Coefficient measures fairness of work distribution (0 = perfect equality, 1 = perfect inequality).
| Range | Status |
|---|---|
| <0.3 | Fair |
| 0.3–0.5 | Some imbalance |
| >0.5 | Significant imbalance |
PR Volume
Tracks authored vs reviewed PRs per contributor. A healthy ratio means contributors are both writing and reviewing code, not concentrated in one role.

Action Items
High burnout risk: reduce workload for at-risk contributors, redistribute to others, review expectations.
Uneven distribution: identify contributors with low workload, consider cross-training to increase capacity.
Imbalanced PR volume: rotate review assignments, set expectations for review participation.
