Summer can be harsh on your productivity. A recent survey found that during the summer, workplace productivity drops 20%, attendance drops 18%, project turnaround times increase 13%, and people are 45% more distracted. The temperature of your office has a huge impact on your productivity. At 86Âº and above, your productivity drops to about 90% of what it was before, a 10% decrease. 2  Any temperature below 68Âº also decreases your productivity. 3  Lower temperatures increase the amount of errors you make, and they also increase your chances of getting sick.
