Workers are the Laziest at This Time on This Day

Research looked at metrics like typing speed, typing errors, and mouse activity for almost 800 workers.

No one is operating at peak efficiency all week long at work. There are some lulls and a new study used computers to determine when workers are the most and least productive. They looked at metrics like typing speed, typing errors, and mouse activity for almost 800 workers, over the course of two years. In the end, they found that workers are the laziest and least productive in the office on Friday afternoons…which isn’t shocking…Mondays are also on the lower end. The study didn’t specifically say when the workers are the most productive but according to the data, mornings are better than afternoons on Wednesdays and Thursdays.
