Mondays have the highest rates of engagement for communicating company news (24%), followed closely by Thursdays (18%) and Fridays (also 18%)
Late evenings are the least effective times for posting events/news with events (8%) and news (7%) posted least often during the late evening hours of 6 pm to 12 am
News gets employees’ attention: 43% of the news items posted daily were read between 12 pm and 6 pm, while 39% were read between 6 am and 12 pm
