Meeting Cost Calculator

How much does each meeting actually cost your company? Calculate the true cost based on attendee salaries and meeting frequency.

Step 1

How many people attend this meeting?

Include everyone in the room (or on the call) — their time has a cost.

Step 2

How long is the meeting?

Step 3

Average attendee salary level

Step 4

How often does this meeting happen?

Why This Matters

The average worker spends 31 hours per month in unproductive meetings. That is nearly 4 full work days lost every month.

Organizations with 5,000+ employees waste an estimated $100M per year on unnecessary meetings.

Understanding the true cost of meetings is the first step toward building a culture that values everyone's time — and invests in the right spaces for the meetings that matter.

Meeting Room Furniture That Helps

Standing-height tables — Meetings run 34% shorter when everyone stands. Adjustable-height conference tables give you the best of both worlds.

Proper AV furniture — Credenzas and mounts designed for screens and cameras eliminate the 5-minute tech-fumble at the start of every hybrid meeting.

Acoustic solutions — Sound-absorbing panels and phone booths keep meetings focused and reduce distractions for the rest of the office.
