WHY WE NEED TO LEAVE THE OFFICE ON TIME

There's no denying that some people are natural-born athlete, having won the genetic lottery and inherited the speed gene. If you're one of them, consider yourself lucky.

Staying at office desks beyond 8 or 8.5 hours doesn’t always mean that we are hard working. Maybe, we can’t efficiently utilize the working hours to do all the day’s work. Beating deadlines though is another story – but we won’t need to cram til the last minutes if we have a smarter working scheme to be productive at work.




A smart worker is the one who’s able to deliver what is expected of him within the schedule – and be able to leave on time. A smart worker is output-oriented actually. A smart worker realizes the 7 things listed in the graphic above, reaping its rewards.

But never ever compromise. Don’t disregard your work. Embrace it, value it, respect it. Leave on time if, and only if you can really cross-out items in your to-do list in a day.

Employers Must Realize…
The former CEO of Coca-cola, Bryan Dyson also said, “Work efficiently during office hours and leave on time. Give the required time to your family, friends and have proper rest.“

This is what I want every employer to look at. They should encourage employees to observe the working time frame efficiently, and discourage working on extended hours. Employers need to feel that their staff are humans – they have family and friends and life outside of work too. Employers must take these 2 things into consideration:

1. If employees develop conflicts within their relationships because of working time issues, they’d be disturbed at work.
2. Severe working on extended hours might cause some minor to major health disorders to some. If employees feel bad, they lose proper concentration. they’ll need medical attention and they’ll probably skip some days of work.

Value Our Lives

If we all neglect our precious time for family, friends and our significant relationships in general, work will also be affected. Focus and productivity definitely suffers; and it has a domino effect.

 

We work, we do good at work because we are inspired by our loved ones. Let’s just give them the due time and attention they deserve from us. Get a life.


Work Smart And Leave The Office On Time
A study at Harvard Business School found that staying late doesn’t always improve efficiency. And employees who leave the office on time were more productive, communicated more effectively, planned ahead and streamlined their workloads better. Lesson? Work less, accomplish more.

Have a balance life. We work to live , not live to work.. :-)
