LexisNexis Workplace Productivity Survey Reveals Extent, Impact of Information Overload on Workers. Welcome to the results of the LexisNexis 2010 International Workplace Productivity Survey, a new study commissioned by LexisNexis and conducted by WorldOne. 1,700 white collar workers in five countries - the United States, China, South Africa, United Kingdom and Australia - were asked about their experience of, and attitudes towards, information in the workplace. The study reveals that information overload is a remarkably widespread and growing problem among professionals around the world, and one that exacts a heavy toll in terms of productivity, performance and employee morale. The survey builds on a similar study conducted in 2008 among professionals in the United States.
That study established information overload as a phenomenon driving American white collar and legal professionals towards an ’information breaking point.’ We hope you’ll find the materials on this site useful and informative.
