We have found that digitization has found its way into almost all areas of the company. We wanted to know how progressive workers from companies with more than 100 employees think their employers are.

Overall, 51 percent of respondents think the company is well positioned in terms of digital progress. With a European average of 54 percent, the result for Germany can keep up well.

Which instruments are used?

And which digitization measures are involved? 34 percent of those surveyed stated that in recent years an electronic System was introduced for personnel management.

In second place, with 28 percent, virtualization of workplaces is taking place - for example, through virtual desktops or telephone conferencing equipment. In third place are the establishment of a social network as well as the offer of eLearning (each 25 percent).

In addition, we wanted to know how German employees evaluate the digitization at the workplace. The result: they are open to it and the corresponding impact.

Almost half (47 percent) of those surveyed indicate that independence at work is improving. 45 percent assume that the cooperation between the teams within a Company benefited, closely followed by the Quality of life at work (43 percent).

However, we can also see from the results that many employees have not yet noticed any influence – neither positively nor negative. For only 16 percent of the survey participants, the ongoing digitization has a negative impact on their everyday work.

Leisure and work are blurring more and more

In addition to the attitude towards digitization, this year also asked for the so-called blurring effect. Compared to 2014, the study participants have the feeling that they are being challenged outside the working hours by the job. Last year, 71 percent of the respondents (74 percent) used to work in their free time.

In management positions, this is the case at 90 percent Agenda. This inevitably leads to Stress. Consequently, as the workload outside of working hours increased in 2015, the stress factor also increased: from 6,3 to 6,6 – on a scale of 1 to 10.

Conclusion: Digitization should be done with caution

As far as digitization in the workplace is concerned, the following quintessence can be drawn: There seems to be a lot of potential in terms of equipment for jobs - both in Germany and throughout Europe. Especially after a large proportion of workers are open to increasing digitization.

However, many employees also complain about stress – of course, digital progress does not necessarily counteract this. For companies, the question arises as to how the increasing blurring of the boundaries between work and leisure is affecting the health of employees useful can be restricted.
