Research: Modern Workplaces Insight Report

Lack of up-to-date technology means UK office workers are collectively wasting more than 1.8 billion hours every year, according to a report by Insight – and as a result, it failing to enable them to enjoy the benefits of flexible working too.

Insight's survey of 2,000 workers finds more than a third (34%) of employees say not being equipped with the right technology makes remote and flexible working ‘difficult and stressful’.

The report also finds:

  • Workers report wasting 2.4 hours every week because they don’t have the right technological support
  • Only 53% of office workers say their internal communications are effective – meaning many employers are not engaging with their employees in the right way
  • Poor technology means the average office worker misses vital information four times a week
  • More than a third (38%) miss important or useful information at least once a day
