How healthy is your brand? Is it flourishing or languishing? These may not be questions that print business executives ask themselves often. But they should be.
In Germany, less than half of the printers in business environments are business inkjet printers1. And this is despite the fact that they enable enormous energy savings compared to laser printers, as a new study by Epson shows.
Only four percent of employees limit their work output to the "bare minimum", suggesting that the biggest problem for employers is not "quiet quitting", but the lack of meaningful and fulfilling work.
57 per cent of respondents would enjoy their work more if they had more time for creative tasks.
The majority of German employees would like to see more inspiration and creativity in their jobs, sending an important signal to employers that they should ensure a varied working day. This is the result of a recent study conducted by Opinium on behalf of Ricoh Europe, which surveyed 1,000 employees and 250 decision-makers in Germany.
