Today’s topic:
We often work besides co-workers and hear them do their work. Does hearing others work affect our own work?

Today’s question:
Do the sounds of other people working change our work?
Yes, work noises can create stress with people. Noises can be made from the sounds of keyboards to the sounds of jackhammers. Researchers played sounds of normal work noises into workers’ offices. Researchers also had workers work in silent offices.

This is what they found:
Workers that worked in an office with noises were more stressed. Noises in your work environment not matter how low, can make workers stressed.

Today’s advice
Keep it cool at work by keeping it quiet.
