Terrible office technology crippling UK productivity

New research has revealed that 84 per cent of UK office workers say their productivity is seriously stunted by being unable to control the temperature in their office.

The survey, conducted by Smart Buildings provider, Redstoneconnect PLC (LON:REDS), found that 47 per cent of employees complain of being uncomfortably hot or cold every day. 25 per cent of respondents said this is a distraction at least three days a week, and no one said the temperature is perfect every day.

Highlighting the essential need to introduce smart technology into the office, the research also found that 81 percent of employees would consider moving jobs for a more technologically advanced office that could streamline their working day.

Despite the conception that workers are unwilling to allow their employers to collect and analyse data on them, 78 per cent wouldn’t mind their employer collecting data on them from a smart office, if it was used to improve their wellbeing and productivity at work.
