Addiction Statistics When the company provides the devices, employees may feel more obligated to remain connected. This could be self- induced pressure unless your employer is requiring this of you. You may feel a sort of pressure to stay connected in order to be more productive or produce more than your peers Some people have admitted using their devices as an escape from what is going on around them Misuse of technology actually reduces your productivity Source: “Too much screen time? Experts might say you’re facing technology addiction,” Caitlin Johnston, The Dallas Morning News 9
