Office Workers Admit Personal IM is Too Much to Resist
Twenty-six percent of today's employees admit to spending more than two hours each workday communicating with their partner over instant messaging (IM) networks, causing potentially significant compliance and productivity concerns for companies, according to a September 2005 Web poll by Akonix Systems, Inc.
The survey of 120 US employees also revealed that 46% spend 1-30 minutes a day talking with their significant other over IM. 12% claim they send personal messages for between 30-60 minutes a day, while 17% spent one to three hours sending IMs to their partner. The average time spent on IM for non-corporate usage across the survey population was 61 minutes a day. This time-consuming habit can lead to lost productivity, costing companies thousands of dollars a year, per employee. >>>
