More than half of office workers resolve work problems via video conferencing, according to the study. Over the past year, the number of online meetings in offices has increased by 2 or 3 times; every second office worker has to participate in 3 or 4 video conferences a day.
Office workers are spending more and more time in online meetings, according to a study by analysts at the Kontur.Talk service. The survey was conducted among 1.3 thousand respondents across the country.
For a third of respondents, the number of online conferences approximately doubled, and for 12% of respondents, it tripled. One in two study participants attends 3 to 4 video calls daily, and one in five people participates in more than five online meetings each weekday.
“More than a third of employees of Russian companies (38%) say that they themselves work in the office and hold video conference meetings with colleagues and clients from other departments and cities,” said Pavel Skripnichenko, director of Kontur. Tolk Project.
In companies with more than a thousand employees, around 30% of employees spend their entire working day in meetings. Furthermore, half of the respondents are not the initiators of these meetings; In most cases, they are organized by department and area heads.
