Microsoft says workers who responded to an online Office survey reported two days out of the workweek were a waste of time

Microsoft on Tuesday said workers who responded to an online Office survey reported two days out of the workweek were a waste of time, with U.S. workers blaming procrastination as the top cause. According to the survey of nearly 40,000 people in 200 countries, workers clock an average of 45 hours per week, but consider about 17 hours of that unproductive. U.S. workers, however, believe only 16 hours are wasted. In the U.S, the biggest productivity pitfalls were procrastination -- picked by 42 percent of those polled -- lack of team communication (39 percent), and ineffective meetings (34 percent). Global numbers were quite different. There, procrastination got 29 percent of the vote, while unclear objectives and ineffective meetings garnered 32 percent.
