The productivity puzzle – a view from employees

March 30, 2016 By the Smith Institute

Our Director Paul Hackett was interviewed twice on the BBC on 30th March 2016 to discuss a survey the Institute has conducted looking at the employee perspective on productivity:

  • 5 Live Breakfast at 2:42:40 – listen here

The survey was commissioned by Prospect, USDAW, BECTU, Community, Association of Teachers and Lecturers, FDA and the Society of Radiographers. These unions are also supporting a Smith Institute report on productivity at the workplace, which we plan to publish before the summer.

The PDF of the full survey findings can be found here.
