Melbourne water cooler a healthy choice
Gathering around your Melbourne water cooler at work can be a step forward for your health. And while the strong links between good hydration and improved concentration and productivity are well known, there are other benefits that flow from the trusty cooler too.
The simple act of taking a few minutes to get a drink from the water cooler, and chatting to workmates in the process, gives you a mental health break before you launch into your next work activity. Other benefits include:
- It allows you to throw around ideas and brainstorm with colleagues, which can lead to positive work solutions;
- Water cooler chat is a great equaliser, where employees and management can socialise;
- You get to know fellow employees better, which improves a sense of workplace community;
- And it can reduce people’s feelings of anxiety, lower stress levels and stop them from being chained to their desk.
So if you see a few staff gathering at your water cooler, don’t assume it is bad for work productivity. Chances are, it might even be giving it a welcome boost. From idea swapping to de-stressing through socialisation, water cooler chat can be a real asset.
Of course, that doesn’t mean people should abuse it, gossip about other staff or engage in divisive topics. Getting a refreshing cup of filtered water or a hot beverage from a water dispenser shouldn’t take 30 minutes or create disharmony. That’s taking it too far. But having a quick chat to colleagues while you rehydrate can be a good thing for your productivity and your wellbeing.
