Distractions prove costly for office workers in a number of ways. As an employee's time
dwindles throughout the day, his or her stress levels rise, affecting everything from their
relationships with co-workers to the length and quality of sleep they get. When trying to
improve office productivity, there are many elements to consider. While some people may
feel they benefit from finishing work right before a major deadline, ultimately they need to
take a step back and look at how they are managing their time. By figuring out how to plan,
delegate, and organize their projects, not only will they become more efficient, they will find
their stress levels lower considerably while their quality of office life improves
tremendously.
