The SmartCells Solution to the Summer Slowdown

Unless you manage a swimming pool or own an ice cream truck, chances are your business slows down during the Summer. With many people taking Summer vacations product sales dip.

To make matters worse, it’s not just sales that slow down. Your employees are likely to be less productive during the Summer months too.

In fact, a 2012 study regarding worker productivity in the summertime found that workplace “productivity declines by about 20 percent between June and September. Furthermore, warmer weather prompts decreased attendance (19 percent lower) and increased distraction levels (45 percent higher than the norm).”

While a decrease in monthly business is never a good thing, savvy organizations spend the Summer optimizing business processes in preparation for their busy months.

Which is why many organizations choose to implement SmartCells Cushioning Technology during the Summer.

Investment and implementation of SmartCells Anti-fatigue solutions not only keeps your employees comfortable while on the job, it promotes productivity, reduces the risk of injuries, and ultimately helps your bottomline.

Ergonomically engineered to resist bottoming out without being too soft, the unique SmartCells anti-fatigue mats, runners, and flooring provide a safe, stable, and comfortable surface to work on.

Sure, ergonomically designed rubber mats may keep your employees comfortable but can they really help your bottomline?

The short answer is, yes. 

Here’s how:

According to a study on lost productivity conducted by The Journal of the American Medical Association, 12.6% of workers experience a loss of productivity due to the following pain conditions: headaches(5.4%), back pain (3.2%), musculoskeletal pain (2.0%) and arthritis pain (2.0%). (PS: This is in addition to the lost productivity most companies experience due to the Summer Slowdown.)

Based on the results of this study, SmartCells Cushioning Technology can effectively reduce nearly 41% of the pain associated with lost productivity due to painful conditions (back and musculoskeletal pain). Over time that adds up to a lot of saved productivity and reduced costs.
