The working day of eight hours was created during the industrial revolution as an attempt to reduce the number of hours of manual labor of factory workers. As is known, cutting hours in the working day he was one of the most significant advances in benefits to the working masses that occurred in the last two hundred years. In the XXI century, that time ceased to have the importance of the past, and many modern companies have classified as a relic meaningless because it represents an obstacle to productivity.
Experts in human resources have become fashionable trend posed a structure different working day. The draugiem group uses an application that measures the amount of time spent by employees on various tasks and compares productivity levels. In developing measurement they found that the length of the working day does not matter much when compared with the way people structure their day. If people take short breaks are more productive than other working nonstop.
Based on that study note the following:
The ideal work-rest ratio should be 52 minutes of work, followed by 17 minutes of rest. People who keep these hours achieve one level of concentration in their tasks. An hour of work in this scheme represents a 100% concentration of the responsibility that plays run.
Workers who are subjected to these times are not distracted by checking the Facebook or emails. When you feel tired take short rest breaks, which helps them to return back to their work with more energy. Eventually those employees are more productive.
Your brain works best when working an hour and 15 minutes rest
Companies that triggered the new structural approach to labor productivity discovered day-break relationship and have managed to far exceed their competitors. At issue is simple to understand, since it is a fundamental need of the human mind, the brain works naturally high-energy jet (about an hour), followed by low-energy jets (15-20 minutes).
For most of us, this natural ebb and flow of energy leaves us to fluctuate between periods of concentration, followed by periods of less productivity, when the buds down and succumb to distractions.
The best way to overcome exhaustion and is getting frustrating distractions during the workday a few minutes of rest. Instead of working for an hour or more and then try to fight not to fall into the distractions and fatigue, it is proposed to take those minutes as a rest period lead us to be more productive.
Complications motivated times, and regulations that have been established by cities to the traditional 8-hour workday, it is recommended that workers break their hours with brief rest intervals. That time can be 10 to 15 minutes will become strategic to align energy and begin the next hour with higher concentration.
Planning a day at intervals of one hour leads to the simplification of tasks in portions, breaking into more manageable parts. The strategy only works because we use our range of peak energy levels to reach an extremely high level of focus for a relatively short period of time.
In the time intervals to take a real break to return to work, it indicates that in their time off can not engage in Facebook or distractions of that nature, but to rest. Get away from your computer, phone, and your to-do list is essential to increase productivity.
Walk, meditate, read and chat are the most effective ways to recharge because they take away from your work.
You should be aware that if you wait until you feel too tired to take a break, it will be too late because the window of maximum productivity was already lost. By Raúl Gorrín.
