These days, all companies are searching for ways to make understaffed departments more productive. Here’s a tactic you may not have thought about:
Adjusting your office’s thermostat.
One-third of employees say temperature can affect their productivity, according to a recent CareerBuilder survey. Most problems come from turning the dial too high — 22% of employees said it’s harder to work when the office is too hot, while 11% said the same about a workplace that’s too cold.
Not sure about the best temperature for employees at your company? CareerBuilder recommends the person in charge send an e-mail to each department to take a survey about preferred thermostat settings. Not everyone will agree — but the answers could be close enough to make a compromise.
