The true cost of your coffee at work
If you think the price of a coffee in your local coffee shop is pushing the boat out, you might be interested to know how much your workplace hot drinks are costing you.
Just picture the scene…
Your sales team are chattering away on the phones, and the support staff are tapping away on their keyboards. Suddenly someone exhales loudly, kicks back their chair, and heads to the break room for a coffee.
Yes, a great way to revitalize at work, however, all too often these pauses turn into prolonged periods due to distractions.
Wellbeing Group believe, due to 10 years of research, that one of the biggest enemies of office productivity is the £35 staffroom electric kettle.
Once we hit the switch, what do we all do with the two to three minutes as the kettle comes to boil? It doesn’t matter who you are – we’re all equally guilty of kettle time-wasting.
Here are the Top 5 Kettle-Waiting Time Wasters
- Check personal social media platforms
- Try and catch the Pokemon which is dancing around outside the window
- Pop out-side for quick cigarette
- Worse still, go and disturb a colleague who is diligently working
- The best workers pop to the toilet… however by the time they return the kettle is either empty or requires re-boiling!
In all of this, what we can be sure of is one thing that won’t be done is WORK!
By the time your employee has returned to their desk, 15 minutes later (plus another five minutes as they refocus on their work) – even if the employee is only paid £8 an hour – that has cost the company £4 a cup, just in wages!
Now multiply this by the number of employees in your office, and the number of hot drinks they have per day….Scary! And for even scarier numbers, don’t forget to then multiply this up for all the employees who earn more than £8 per hour and you have now worked out the math’s for your workplace!
“No more coffee breaks!” I hear you cry. Well that’s not going to be productive either and hydration is a key factor for the well-being of your employees.
OK, so how does any company stop Kettle time wasting and reduce costs?
Simple! Just take away the possibility to become side-tracked and eliminate that kettle!
The solution to your problem is amazingly simple. All you need is to install a boiling filtered water tap or a hot water boiler in your staffroom. The right unit will dispense a steady stream of fresh water heated to just below boiling point all day long. No matter if you’re pouring tea for two, or coffee for the entire office, you can make it as fast as you can pour it.
Once you remove the distraction, when the body-clock says “sustain me”, your staff don’t have time to contemplate their mobiles to find out what their sister’s boyfriend had for dinner, because by the time they’ve put coffee in their cup, the water’s ready to pour. They’ll be back at their desk in the time it used to take to fill up and plug in the kettle.
There will be those who roll their eyes and don’t have the capacity to take this information in; the same people who fill up the land fill sites with their old kettles every 6 months or so.
Then there will be the one or two, who listen and do the math’s.
