If we examine only the men in the survey, it appears that 76% stated that they watch the World Cup games.

14% stated that they watch all the games during work, 24% try to keep up with the results, 10% watch at least one game and the rest, 52%, do not watch at all while working.

To the question of whether the workplace provides a platform for viewing, 10% stated that it does and that there is a Happy Hour and broadcast on a projector, 12% stated that there is a television in the workplace and a bud to watch freely, 1% allow viewing only for the late games, 15% the workplace does not provide a platform but you can watch via computer or mobile phone.

The remaining 62% testified that they do not allow watching the games.



In addition, some workplaces allow flexibility during the World Cup games.

11% testified that yes and that it is possible to go home early, 16% testified that they do not comment at all on viewing during work and 74% testified that they do not refer to it at all.

16% testified that productivity decreases but marginally

When examining whether the level of productivity at work decreases, 16% testified that their productivity at work decreased during the World Cup.

This is compared to 84% who stated that there was no decrease.



Of those who testified that their productivity decreased;

9% testified that the decrease is 50% or more.

5% testified that the decrease in output is about 20%, and another 9% testified that there is a decrease, but a marginal one that is about a 10% decrease.


The data is also the same in the distribution only for men who watch games during work.



Liat Ben Torah Shoshan,

director of the career department at AllJobs, stated: "Since it is difficult to ignore the World Cup celebration, it might be right for employers to take part and allow joint viewing during the work day. We see that employers who have learned to turn it into a celebration in the workplace and hold Happy Hour, activities Formation and branding of an employer, won merit points from the employees, who for their part will invest more."
