Gone are the days of the standard nine-to-five workday for many in the US. Say hello to the “triple-peak” workday.
The pandemic and its effects on work have reconfigured the white-collar employee’s workday in many ways, including changing the time of day they’re working.
Managers told The Wall Street Journal that they were seeing a “dead zone” from 4 p.m. to 6 p.m. because workers were signing off early before logging on again later to wrap up their work for the day. Workers use the time to run errands, pick up their kids, commute home before rush hour, or use the time for leisure, including hitting the golf course.
