Distractions can be a big problem when you’re trying to get work done. When you lose focus at work, you become less productive. This can cause problems for your whole team, and end up costing your employer valuable time and money. Labor Solutions wants everyone to succeed, so we have some tips to help you avoid distractions at work.

Staying Focused
It’s easy to get distracted in a busy environment. Labor Solutions knows it’s important to focus and block out distractions as much as possible in order to get everything done each day. Here’s how we do it.

  • Break it down. Most of our biggest tasks can be broken down into smaller tasks that are easier to tackle. Being overwhelmed by an enormous assignment can cause us to welcome interruptions, which only slows our progress. 
  • Schedule breaks. If we don’t take time to rest, we’re more prone to exhaustion and errors. So make a break schedule, and stick to it. 
  • Block media distractions. Sometimes putting on some motivating music makes us more productive, but having a television on can drag your attention away from the task at hand. Same goes for the internet and cellphones. Turn off the ringer, and employ apps that prevent social media access if you can’t resist the draw of social media.
  • Choose your company carefully. Try to place yourself near other productive workers, and establish boundaries with individuals who tend to interrupt and distract. After all, teamwork makes the dream work!
