Solution To Improve Your Productivity At Work

In the middle of the week, labor productivity tends to decline. Although it is intended to complete all the tasks, but it remains difficult to increase labor productivity. Why?

A study at the University of Galve in Sweden revealed, one reason for the declining productivity of labor is too noisy office environment. The researchers tested 24 office workers with a regular series of simulation tests in the office. As a result, the performance decreased 8.7 percent due to a noisy office, and 10.6 percent because of difficulty in obtaining the information needed to support the work.

"This study shows that a noisy work environment led to the poor performance of a person. Moreover, today many are renovating an office work space into an open room with no cubicles. Fact cubicles are actually useful to dampen the mood a bit noisy in the office," said Helena Jahncke, PhD, one of the researchers.

So how effective ways to increase your productivity at work again?

1. Take advantage of "earphones"
"The solution is most easily done to eliminate noise is to use earphones," says Jahncke. When it begins to lose concentration for work, just plug both earplugs and start working.

If it still is difficult to concentrate, you can play your favorite songs in the playlist. Some studies also revealed that listening can also increase work productivity. Instead of listening to mellow songs, try to plug the upbeat songs to raise your spirits

2. Turn off your cell phone ring tones
Research at Louisiana State University revealed that cell phone ringtones are the main reason for the disruption of one's work productivity. Just imagine, when you're working concentration of a sudden the phone rings with your colleagues hard, surely your concentration directly dispersed immediately.

If possible, you can ask for approval being in a co-worker to turn off the cell phone ring tones and replace it with a vibrating alert while working. This will not only help increase your productivity, but also more friends.

3. Occasionally work from home
If you need a very high concentration to complete your important work, it could not hurt to get it done at home. Ask your boss for permission to work at home. When working at home with a more relaxed atmosphere and a controlled working environment you can concentrate and improve productivity.

However, surely this can not be done continuously. You should be able to find a way to be able to concentrate on your work environment, though noisy.
