Employers urged to combat poor use of time in the workplace

-

Business owners and HR managers are being urged to take steps to prevent their employees drowning in work through poor use of time.

Jerry Hopkins, Founder of time-effective.com, has launched an innovative online boot camp to help employees get the most from their working day.

The eight one-hour webinars, spread across just four weeks, will show people how to create a clear vision, put in place a time management system and learn delegation and communication skills.

Jerry said: “We are all busy. The difference is that some of us are alive with purpose, energy and work satisfaction, while others are drowning in their workload.

“Time-effective.com is a four week online course during which participants will make a few simple shifts in their approach to work that will make a massive difference to their time.”

Among the biggest issues Jerry says stressed employees face are:

  • Not being sure of what they should be doing;
  • Feeling they would have been better doing something themselves because they have delegated poorly;
  • Rushing work tasks instead of giving them the time they need;
  • Drowning in a sea of emails and unfinished tasks.
