Tuesday Ranks As Most Productive Work Day

Workers are most productive on Tuesdays, according to a survey from Accountemps.

The Accountemps survey found that 39 percent of human resources managers interviewed said Tuesday is the most productive day of the work week, giving the second day of the work week the top spot regularly since 1987.

Thursday and Friday tied for the least productive days, with just 3 percent of respondents saying they top the list.

After Tuesday, HR managers said Monday (24 percent) and Wednesday (14 percent) were the most productive work days. Another 14 percent said the day of the week didn’t matter.

In explaining Tuesday’s value, Max Messmer, chairman of Accountemps said, “Many workers spend Monday catching up from the previous week and planning the one ahead. On Tuesday, employees may begin to have time to focus on individual tasks and become more productive.”
