A caffeine kick may be one of the most popular reasons for consuming coffee, but the benefits associated with drinking good quality coffee go beyond this. Discover more about the benefits of coffee at work…
Coffee benefit one: It increases productivity
Whilst it’s widely known that caffeine improves mental alertness, did you know that it can help decision making and learning too? [1]. With 31% of employees highlighting coffee as one of the top ways to give themselves an energy boost at work. So a trip to the office coffee machine is a no brainer – especially to combat the post lunch slump discovered by a One Poll survey to be at 13:27[2].
Coffee benefit two: It boosts morale
A whopping 82% of people feel that coffee puts them in a better mood [3]. Just knowing that a good cup of coffee is waiting for them in the morning can make the commute to work a little bit easier. 61% of employees also feel their employer cares about their well-being if they provide hot drinks[4]. So whilst an office coffee machine alone won’t improve your company culture (or write those reports due on a Friday…), a good cup of quality coffee is a great place to start when it comes to keeping your team happy!
Coffee benefit three: It helps colleagues build relationships
“Fancy a coffee?” – such a simple question, but what an impact it can have in the workplace. The ritual of sitting down for a chat over a cup of coffee is one we’re all familiar with. Plus, it can help us form and deepen relationships with our co-workers[5]. New starter in the office? Offer them a coffee. Colleague having a bad day? Offer them a coffee. Need a favour from someone? You know what to do…
Coffee benefit four: It provides health benefits
Stats shared by the World Coffee Portal highlight how drinking cups of coffee can improve our health[6]. They have found that drinking 1 cup of coffee a day may help to reduce depression by 8%, 3-4 cups can reduce chronic liver/fatty liver disease by 35% and 1.5 to 3.5 cups of coffee can reduce the likelihood of death over a 7-year period by up to 31%.
