It is obvious that using social networking sites divert the attention of people and they do not pay much attention to their work. Seeing this most of the companies have banned the use of popular social networking sites. The other side of the fact, some companies find it very useful and leveraging and so allow access to these sites during working hours.

Statistics have something else to say. According to an IT research firm, the employee productivity rate dropped by 1.5% at companies that allowed them full access to Facebook at the workplace. Another fact is that more than 75% of the employees today have their account in Facebook and cannot stop themselves using it even when in office. It is obvious because everyone wants to get connected with their friends and near and dear ones.

On the other hand it is important to concentrate on work because you are paid for providing your service and helping your company make more profit. So, you cannot neglect your first hand duty and you should give priority to it. Well! Here comes the frustration and this is definitely not going to help you give your maximum to your work.

In fact you need not worry at all because you can connect your mobile with Facebook and get important updates on that. You can facilitate important group of people from your Facebook account and add notifications with phone messages. So, whenever you get a break of 10- 15 minutes, you can respond to the message or if it’s urgent you can call back. This break can be your lunchtime or a simple coffee break as well.
