Going in an out of tasks takes time and decrease productivity – however you can change that - today.
On average it takes 25 mins for a worker to return to the original task after an interruption, and another eight minutes pass until the worker has reached the level of concentration.* That is some of the insights from a survey conducted by Ecophon.
The new way forward is to create environments at office spaces that inspire and invite people to sit in areas meant for high productivity and increased focused based upon a possibility given by the company. This golden note, to create high-productivity areas, is a win for the company and the employer. A productive and less noisy day can help daily goals intact and create a winning environment.
Strong evidence support that working in open spaces reduces privacy and job satisfaction. It’s also believed that working in open areas intensifies cognitive workload and worsens interpersonal relations due to proximity between workstations and reduced privacy.* These insights are critical to increase work productivity and better well-being at work.
