Most UK adults spending almost an entire day a week online. Business leaders in the pharmaceutical industry need to create more break-out spaces in a bid to keep staff invigorated and boost collaboration, according to Condeco Software

Figures from the Office of National Statistics (ONS) show that the average adult spends more than 20 hours online a week, which includes time spent on the internet at work. Condeco Software says that breakout spaces are vital way for businesses across the world to help give staff a rest from the glare of their computer screen. These areas can simply be separate spaces, away from the normal work arena –places where staff eat, relax, brainstorm or hold meetings. Giving people a break from the computer screen also has benefits that some people may overlook, such as helping firms comply with health and safety rules.
