As an operations manager or office manager, it is important that you know what are the factors that influence employee productivity within an office.
This will allow to understand and detect in time, problems and internal situations that are affecting the performance of your employees.
If you have noticed that your work team lacks the motivation to perform their responsibilities successfully, we invite you to read this article so that you have some causes to the problem and you can invest time and resources inefficient solutions for it: 1. Long working hours of the most common mistakes of companies is to concentrate daily workdays between 10 to 12 hours thinking that this can generate better results. When it really happens.
So many hours in a job produces fatigue, fatigue and mental blockages, which affects a person's productivity levels.
It is not about measuring productivity by the amount of time, but by the quality of the results. In this sense, we recommend you to establish a work schedule of a maximum of 8 hours and daily goals to meet. 2. A dirty and disorganized environment among the factors that influence employee productivity is having to work in a dirty and disorganized environment.
Both conditions generate deconcentration and discourage anyone to continue developing their daily activities in such a place, even more so, if it is an office.
A desk full of dust and stains, in addition to generating discomfort, and complaints, can produce diseases and allergies that can affect the health of your workers. 3. Short rest periodsDuring the workday, it is important to incorporate short periods of rest (approximately 15 minutes) that allow workers to reduce their stress levels, take fresh air and interact with their peers.
These breaks have an impact on employee productivity since they allow controlling tension and clearing the mind a little, with the aim of avoiding an accumulation of tiredness and fatigue. 4. Tension and conflict relations between workers organizational climate plays an important role in stimulating a person's productivity. If there are conflict relations and ill-treatment among workers in an office, it will be very difficult for them to feel at ease and to successfully fulfil their assignments. To do this you must be very attentive to the requests and relationships that develop in the office. We recommend you organize once a month.
