You’ve likely seen or heard these coffee-lover phrases before: don’t talk to me until I’ve had my coffee; but first, coffee; this girl runs on coffee; and so on. Coffee has become such a huge part of popular culture, something people with nothing in common can bond over. And, this is all for good reason! Drinking coffee has several benefits, especially in the workplace.

The Perks of Offering Coffee in the Office

 

Improved Productivity

A huge benefit of providing coffee in the office is that your employees will be more efficient and productive. The caffeine will help them stay awake and alert and can really help with that midday slump. Coffee is the boost your employees need to stay focused and get their work done, resulting in a more productive workplace.

Increased Energy

When you provide coffee in the office, you’ll notice a change in the atmosphere. Employees have much more energy when they’ve got caffeine in their system, resulting in better moods as well! Your team will tend to care about their work more when they have more energy too, which also ties into productivity.

Encourages Socialization

Often times, we find ourselves stuck at our desks for hours without realizing we haven’t had a break. Coffee encourages your team to take short breaks and socialize with each other around the coffee maker or in the break room. Taking time away from your desk is important for avoiding eye strain and giving your brain a refresh, and providing coffee is one way to promote that.
