Study: Workers Least Productive on Friday Afternoons

And if you hit a post lunch productivity slump, you are not alone. A study published in the journal PL OS reveals that the average worker makes more errors and completes fewer tasks. As the day goes on. The study looked at 800 in office employees at a Texas company for two years and they tracked their computer activity. The study found that workers productivity was different depending on the time of day with more errors occurring in the afternoon. Overall workers got more productive from Monday through Wednesday but hit a week long low on Friday afternoons. The researchers found that coming up with hybrid or shorter work weeks might benefit workers without meaning much loss of productivity.
