We average 44 hours a week at work but are only productive for 29 hours a week. What is the #1 reason we aren’t productive?

Most people don't actually like their jobs?

Interesting problem... I worked with this "lean" thing while I was employed by Bring. Our conclusion revealed that most of the inefficiency at a workplace is due to people taking breaks and talking to colleagues. We didn't however, break it down to work-related or private conversations. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lean_manufacturing

Thanks, but again, a typical incident of pure luck! I had no idea that what occurred at a particular work place in Drammen had universal relevance and could be applied generally in the statistics.
I remember that we followed the workers for hours while taking notes of everything they did, like picking articles, registering stock balance, driving fork lifts, moving pallet jacks, filling up locations, talking, going to the rest room, eating something etc...

Luck or not, good job! Our office actually had cameras... well they claimed they were for security but no one believed that. Didn't stop anyone from chatting either.
