In the RouteNote offices we always have our RouteNote HQ playlist streaming from Sonos&#8217; all around us. If we&#8217;re not listening to the Sonos or the amazing music you upload to us then we&#8217;ll have our headphones on listening to our own stuff. Thankfully, it&#8217;s good for your work.<\/p>\n<p>A new survey by Accountemps, which surveyed 1000 employees working in offices, looks at whether or not listening to music whilst you work helps. Of the people surveyed, 44% said that they were allowed to listen to music at work with no restrictions, whilst only 9% said they were not allowed to listen to music at work at all.<\/p>\n<p>Of those who could listen to music at work 39% said that music makes them <strong>much\u00a0<\/strong>more productive whilst 32% said it helped them to be\u00a0<strong>somewhat\u00a0<\/strong>more productive. Whilst the results clearly show people think that music helps them to work better Accountemps make clear that it&#8217;s a thin line to annoying your colleagues if you listen too loudly or sing along, so listen appropriately.<\/p>\n<p>Accountemps executive director, Michael Steinitz says: &#8220;While music can be a stress reliever or source of motivation for many workers, it can be a distraction for others. Those who want to listen to music in the office need to be aware of company policies and considerate toward their colleagues.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-14667 lazyload\" src=\"http:\/\/routenote.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/09\/Pressing-Play-IG-AT-09-17-2018-201x450.jpg\" alt=\"office music productivity productive listening work working\" width=\"201\" height=\"450\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/routenote.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/09\/Pressing-Play-IG-AT-09-17-2018-201x450.jpg 201w, https:\/\/routenote.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/09\/Pressing-Play-IG-AT-09-17-2018-768x1721.jpg 768w, https:\/\/routenote.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/09\/Pressing-Play-IG-AT-09-17-2018-457x1024.jpg 457w, https:\/\/routenote.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/09\/Pressing-Play-IG-AT-09-17-2018-1000x2240.jpg 1000w, https:\/\/routenote.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/09\/Pressing-Play-IG-AT-09-17-2018-800x1792.jpg 800w, https:\/\/routenote.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/09\/Pressing-Play-IG-AT-09-17-2018.jpg 1036w\" sizes=\"auto\" \/><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>It&#8217;s been proven, listening to music whilst you work makes you more productive and better at working.
