Here are the features Jobber offers to help you price more profitable jobs:

Labor Cost Tracking

Factor every labor hour into your pricing

Set a default labor rate for each of your employees. When they track their visit time using the Jobber mobile app, their labor rate and hours will be automatically calculated as labor costs for the job.

For more accurate labor costing, use location timers to automatically track your team’s time so you can ensure your timesheets are accurate and always up to date.
