It may surprise you to hear social media is not the number 1 way to waste time at work.
According to research conducted for Seek, Australians participate in the following top 5 activities when they don’t want to work:
No 5 – Take long breaks
No 4 – Do nothing
No 3 – Clean their desk
No 2 – Visit social media sites
No 1 – Almost half of all respondents said they talk to work mates when they don’t want to work
Spending time chatting to colleagues about work and social activities is necessary to get things done and build high performance teams.
But if your staff are disinterested, disengaged or exhausted, they will find ways to avoid work which may impact on the productivity of other team members.
