How this works in practice ➡️ The view shows the distinct number of calendar hours disrupted by pages. For example, if there are pages at 6.30pm, 7.15pm, and 7.25pm, we would count two disrupted hours (6-7pm, and 7-8pm).

Looking after your team’s wellbeing while managing on-call page disruptions can be a juggle. PagerDuty research found that 54% of page responders are being interrupted outside of normal working hours.

The wellbeing impact of being paged 5 times over 5 hours is larger than 5 times in one hour.

What helps is building trust and being transparent with the use of metrics, because those support psychological safety. 💡
