What is Labour Mix Variance ?

Labour Mix Variance measures the impact of changes in the labour mix on labour costs. It is the portion of direct labor efficiency variance that is attributable to the difference between the standard and actual group composition of employees. It defines the actual proportion or composition of different types of labor (e.g., skilled workers, semi-skilled workers, unskilled workers) used in a production process during a specific period. It represents the planned or expected proportion of various types of labour in the production process, as defined in the budget or standard cost system. Labour mix variance analysis can provide insights into efficiency, resource allocation, and the effectiveness of workforce planning. Management can use this information to make adjustments to labour allocation, staffing levels, or training programs to optimize performance and control costs.
