How reliable is your connectivity in the workplace?

Studies have shown that UK businesses are falling behind when it comes to connectivity in the office environment. Having a reliable internet connection within the workplace is becoming vital.

Approximately 78% of British employees face connection problems and over half of these employees feel frustrated when they are not able to connect to the internet during the day. Research has shown that workers are dissatisfied with the level of poor connectivity as it affects their productivity and quality of work. Two thirds of UK workers do not have wireless access to the internet in the workplace whereas in European countries only a third work without Wi-Fi connection.

We are now in 2015 so how can UK organisations still be relying on poor connectivity?

Having wireless access allows employees to work from their own device or away from their desk if necessary. This allows more flexibility for employees during the working week and therefore leads to a more productive and satisfied workforce. With poor connectivity, employees may not be meeting deadlines and performing less in the work environment.
