The Human Resources Department recently surveyed the employees. They are wasting nearly two hours per day. Here are my ideas to reduce this waste. First we need to agree on what are the Most important behaviors to stop. For example，look at activity No.1 in the table below. Many people are doing this；however，it is the most difficult to stop. I recommend that we focus on activities No. 2，4，and 5. Making phone calls shows the largest difference between men and women. Women do this much more than men. We should ask all employees to limit these calls. They should return non-urgent messages at their lunch break. For No. 4，we should focus on the younger age group. We will tell them that we are going to check their work accounts for personal messages. For No. 5，we can ask managers to watch this more carefully. Perhaps activity No. 3 should continue. This allows employees to know each other and it can increase their motivation. The managers will know if someone is spending too much time talking and not enough time working. Are you available tomorrow?Id like to meet with you to discuss our next step. Time Spent on Non-work-related ActivitiesActivitiesMenWomen1. Going online85%83%2. Making personal phone calls55%80%3.
