Nearly every worker knows about the stress that can arise when technology fails, but employees who work in information technology (IT) likely have it the worst, according to a recent study conducted by Diskeeper Corporation.
A total of 400 employees were surveyed, and the results reveal that the top stressors among IT workers include computer stalling, system crashes, lost data, help desk calls and other technological failures and errors.
“These problems hamper IT managers and companies in one form or another on a day-to-day basis. Any solution which can comprehensively address them should be paramount,” said Diskeeper spokesperson Thomas Doria.
These findings suggest that organizations should be sure to keep their systems updated and free of unnecessary files in order to keep things working smoothly for IT workers, who can be integral to a company’s basic operation.
