Why Leaders Should Welcome Employees Napping on the Job<\/h2>\n

In the past, nodding off at your desk was considered not only embarrassing but also exceedingly bad form. Not to mention probable cause for reprimand, if not firing. But in today\u2019s highly stressed, sleep-deprived, caffeine-dependent culture, the ability to take a guilt-free nap is more often considered a welcome, healthful workplace amenity. Even better, it can have significant positive effects on a company\u2019s bottom line.<\/p>\n

A rested employee is a productive employee. It makes sense for employers to allow today\u2019s highly mobile worker to sneak in rest any time and any way they can \u2014 even if it means stealing a few minutes for snoozing on company time.<\/p>\n

It\u2019s backed by science.<\/strong><\/h3>\n

A huge quantity of scientific evidence supports napping as a useful tool to heighten employee performance. Study after study overwhelmingly suggests that a quick cat nap (even 10 minutes helps) can boost brain activity, enhance concentration, support creativity and even reduce the risk of disease.<\/p>\n

It can bolster worker effectiveness.<\/h3>\n

Nap breaks can enhance productivity and efficiency in five ways.<\/p>\n

First, naps boost alertness. Research conducted at the Department of Veterans Affairs Hospital in Northport, N.Y., concluded that a short sleep session can improve cognitive functioning and alertness, resulting in a 30 percent decline in attention failures from the baseline measure. This is especially valuable in environments focused on safety. There, workers can expect a 30 percent boost \u2014 a key to maintaining safe procedures \u2014 after a nap.<\/p>\n
