As the dust begins to settle from a contentious presidential election and a week of waiting that kept the country in limbo, employers are now tasked with getting their workers back on track and refocused at work.
According to a study by Gartner, a global research and consultancy firm, 60% of employees reported feeling distracted at work because of the presidential election. The study anticipates political distractions will continue to dominate in the workplace post-election too, with 57% of employees reporting they sometimes or often discuss politics at work.
