Quick nap on the job?
by Adelaide Z | October 26, 2010How would you like to take a quick nap at work? This is no joke; Harvard Business Review came out with a blog a few weeks ago and had a lot to say about it!
Experts are saying that people are just not getting the minimum requirement of 7.5 hours of sleep to maintain overall good health causing exhaustion at the work place. More and more employers are taking notice and are worried that they are losing productivity. As such, some companies are providing nap rooms or check out Google they placed nap pods under their stair wells (which, I must say is an unusual but brilliant use of lost space!) for employees to get some rest. Of course, there are rules to follow. I mean, we can’t nap all day but a quick 20 minutes is known to refresh people and bring them back to life.
