🕑 It's Friday, almost 2 p.m., and you'd rather spend your time outside, soaking up the sun, than in an office? That’s why we activate again our: Summer Fridays! This highly anticipated perk is back this year, allowing us to finish our workday at 2 p.m. on Fridays, so we can relax and recharge 🔋. We deeply believe that wrapping up our tasks earlier on summer Fridays will greatly benefit mental health, well-being, and work-life balance. ☀️ So, it's high time to finish this post and go outside to enjoy the sun! #MSDPolska #SummerFridays #WorkLifeBalance

Finally, Friday! But is it really the end of the workweek? Let's face it, the traditional 9-to-5 grind doesn't always work for our lives these days. We all have personal commitments, families, and passions – things that make us, well, Us! Isn't it time we stop feeling guilty about wanting a life outside the office? That's why I'm a huge believer in work-life integration. Imagine the freedom to tackle that big project when your focus is sharpest, or squeezing in a workout class without feeling like you're letting down your team. That's the power of integration. This weekend, I challenge you to take control. Think about what truly matters to you, and brainstorm ways to weave it into your work week. Maybe it's setting boundaries for checking emails after hours or scheduling focused work sessions around your childcare needs. There's no one-size-fits-all answer, but the key is finding a balance that fuels your productivity and your well-being. Let's get rid of the guilt and embrace a life that's fulfilling in all aspects.

It’s National Workaholic Day…Thankful @TheDealeyGroup offers an extra perk to all full-time employees with Summer Fridays ☀️Memorial Day through Labor Day! I’m getting a jump start on the weekend with these pool 👙 vibes It’s a known fact extra 🕒 off work improves your health and productivity! According to Forbes, working 55 hours or more a week is associated with a * 35% higher risk of stroke * 17% higher risk of dying from heart disease than a workweek of 35 to 40 hours Nature.com says spending at least 120 minutes a week in natural environments (such as parks, woodlands, pools, lakes and beaches) is associated with good health and well-being. Moral of the story, don’t be a workaholic. Taking time off is linked to a slew of benefits, including better sleep and improved mental health. So, what are you waiting for? Put the work aside (it will still be there Monday!) and start your weekend early. How are you spending your Friday afternoon?

𝗜𝘁'𝘀 𝗧𝗶𝗺𝗲 𝘁𝗼 𝗥𝗲𝘁𝗵𝗶𝗻𝗸 𝗙𝗿𝗶𝗱𝗮𝘆𝘀: 𝗪𝗵𝘆 𝗪𝗲 𝗦𝗵𝗼𝘂𝗹𝗱 𝗔𝗹𝗹 𝗖𝗹𝗼𝗰𝗸 𝗢𝘂𝘁 𝗮𝘁 𝟮𝗽𝗺 #worklifebalance #mentalhealth #productivity For many of us, Fridays are a marathon, not a sprint. We power through the day, fueled by the promise of the weekend, only to arrive at 5pm feeling drained and depleted. But what if there was a better way? 𝗜 𝗽𝗿𝗼𝗽𝗼𝘀𝗲 𝗮 𝗿𝗮𝗱𝗶𝗰𝗮𝗹 𝗶𝗱𝗲𝗮: 𝗲𝘃𝗲𝗿𝘆𝗼𝗻𝗲 𝗰𝗹𝗼𝗰𝗸𝘀 𝗼𝘂𝘁 𝗮𝘁 𝟮𝗽𝗺 𝗼𝗻 𝗙𝗿𝗶𝗱𝗮𝘆𝘀. 🧨 This isn't just about getting an extra few hours of personal time. It's about prioritizing our well-being and acknowledging the science behind productivity. Studies have shown that shorter workweeks can lead to increased productivity, creativity, and employee satisfaction. Think about it: with an extra three hours in your day, you could: * Spend time with loved ones * Pursue hobbies and interests * Recharge and de-stress * Get ahead on errands or chores By returning to work on Monday feeling refreshed and re-energized, we'd all be setting ourselves up for a more productive and successful week. 👔This isn't just about individuals; 𝗶𝘁'𝘀 𝗮𝗯𝗼𝘂𝘁 𝗰𝗼𝗺𝗽𝗮𝗻𝗶𝗲𝘀 𝘁𝗼𝗼. By embracing a culture that prioritizes well-being, businesses can foster a happier, healthier, and more engaged workforce. ⛷️🏂🏊🏄🏌📖 💭What do you think? Is it time to rethink Fridays? Let's start a conversation! 👇 I encourage you to share your thoughts and experiences in the comments below. Let's work together to create a work environment that supports both our professional success and personal well-being.

**Why Fridays are Just as Important as Mondays** Fridays often get a reputation as the unofficial start of the weekend, but they're just as crucial as Mondays for several reasons: 1. **Reflection and Planning**: Fridays offer a unique opportunity to reflect on the week's accomplishments and challenges. This reflection sets the stage for effective planning for the following week, ensuring a productive start on Monday. 2. **Closure and Achievement**: Ending the week on a high note by tying up loose ends and completing tasks can provide a sense of achievement and satisfaction, boosting morale and motivation. 3. **Work-Life Balance**: Fridays are a reminder of the importance of work-life balance. Wrapping up work efficiently allows us to fully enjoy the weekend, which in turn, enhances productivity and creativity when we return to work on Monday. 4. **Team Building**: Fridays often bring a more relaxed atmosphere, fostering team bonding and camaraderie. These moments strengthen relationships and improve collaboration within the workplace. Embrace Fridays as a vital part of your workweek. They play a key role in maintaining momentum, ensuring preparedness, and fostering a positive work culture. Let's give Fridays the credit they deserve! #WorkLifeBalance #Productivity #TeamBuilding

Embracing the work-from-home life has brought my family even closer. I’ve crafted a routine that matches well with my early-bird nature, kickstarting my workday around 7 am. This allows me to wrap up early, opening up precious time for family moments. Our mornings are cherished, we start each day sharing breakfast together - our sacred family ritual. When weekends roll in, we transform into explorers, whether on an exciting journey or a simple stroll around town. That being said, life isn't always a smooth sail, especially when the school holidays roll in and we're caught up in work. Our kids tend to turn to tech devices, which isn't ideal. But we've found a sweet solution - sleepovers with friends! They're not just fun, but also a great way to keep the tech obsession in check. All in all, finding a balance between work and family is still a continuous journey. What are your tips for maintaining this equilibrium in a work-from-home environment? #worklifebalance #dailyroutine #familytime

People tend to be less productive on Fridays. Especially in the afternoons. Shocking, I know. 🤭 But it's not just a feeling, it's a fact backed by research over the years. The most recent one is a study by Texas A&M School that revealed a contrast in productivity levels throughout the week: a high of 20.4% task completion on Mondays, dropping to just 16.7% on Fridays. Basically, a dip in employee activity and an increase in errors. A solution to consider: the 4-day or 4.5-day workweek. The benefits? 🔹 Shorter weeks can lead to more focused and effective work. 🔹 Extra time off boosts mental health and work-life balance. 🔹 A great benefit that attracts top candidates. 🔹 Happier employees are more likely to stay longer within the company. So, why not consider reshaping the workweek? After all, it's not just about giving an extra day off; it's about optimizing productivity and creating a happier, healthier workplace. #workweek #productivity #roremote

𝗔 𝘁𝘆𝗽𝗶𝗰𝗮𝗹 𝗳𝗿𝗶𝗱𝗮𝘆... Since June we have tested and also adapted a four workday week. And ever since our fridays look kind od like this. Sports, relaxation, hobbies, pets, familytime or anything else you might wish. ⛔ But what about the workload? ⛔ Isn't there employees not profiting from it? ⛔ Don't you have issues regarding motivation? ✅ To put it short: no. Everyone is working as hard as before, everything is getting done in time. Of course there are a few exceptions throughout the company with slightly different working times, but these employees also profited. We regret nothing and we're seeing a boost of productivity and motivation! #viertagewoche #fourdayweek #newwork
