A company must have a department which in carrying out its duties functions to regulate planning in Human Resources and in carrying out the department concerned will calculate the number of employees who will then be given authority or responsibility for their work. Productivity and work efficiency can be disrupted if there is an employee workload. Employee workload can occur when doing tasks that exceed the ability of employees. At PT Asuransi Central Asia there is an imbalance of work in some divisions and causes delays in completing work. In addition, the distribution of employees in each work unit, there are still those who do not refer to the workload and there are also employees who do not use their productive time as well as possible.

The results of this study indicate that the effective working day for a year is 226 days and the effective working time is 1,360 hours for five working days per week. Through the Work Sampling method, it is known that the total time for productive activities is 78%, unproductive activities are 11% and personal activities are 11% with a 30% allowance. Based on the results of measuring the workload with the Full Time Equivalent method, it can be seen that there are 16 employees with an under load workload, an in load workload of 13 employees and an employee with an overloaded workload of 8 employees. Therefore, the company can take several steps to optimize its employees, namely by transferring tasks from overloaded employees to under loaded employees in the same division, companies can also increase working time with overtime wages without having to add 5 employees to save company costs, companies can also conduct employee transfers, provide training and education to improve employee skills and knowledge, and pay attention to the employee's work system.
