By Raul Gorrín. Modern companies have
neglected the typical working day of 8 hours based on two criteria: It is
inefficient and ineffective. It is recommended to proceed to an optimization of
working hours, adding some rest periods to encourage better use of brain power
management.
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
