THE SURPRISING CONNECTION BETWEEN AFTER-HOURS WORK AND DECREASED PRODUCTIVITY

Summary from the TLDR Web Dev newsletter

With the results of a survey taken by 10,000 desk workers, Slack’s Workforce Index uncovers some interesting key learnings about workday productivity. The survey found that employees who step away from their computers at the end of the workday register a 20% increase in productivity compared to those who work after hours. Only 25% of workers feel productive in the afternoon and workers who regularly take breaks have 13% higher productivity.
