Lunch Breaks are Disappearing

According to a new survey by Right Management, fewer than half of employees leave their desk to take a lunch break.

The survey also found that management and executives were the most likely to take a break with 53% saying they almost always do. Also interesting- 57% of 18-24 year olds say they always take a break.

I try to leave the office once or twice a week, just to break up the day. I find it handy to run quick errands or take a walk outside, weather permitting.

What's your lunch routine like?

30% of managers are more stressed

According to new survey released by OfficeTeam, 30% of managers are more stressed at work today than they were a year ago.

The survey also found that there is no end in sight; 28% expect their anxiety levels to rise in the coming year.

With many companies having put positions and employees accumulating more tasks, I am not surprised that people feel more stressed now.


Are you?
