Marriott Student Review
Although the status quo in the business world is to work long hours and supposedly produce more each workweek, studies show that working less and taking appropriately regulated breaks actually lead to more productivity in individuals and businesses as a whole.

By reducing mental fatigue in your employees, their productivity will increase.
