warm office=fewer typing errors
finally, empirical evidence for why you should crank up the thermostat: cornell researcher, alan hedge, has found that increasing office temperature from 68 degrees to 77 degrees lowers errors and shortens break times. "The results of our study also suggest raising the temperature to a more comfortable thermal zone saves employers about $2 per worker, per hour," says Hedge, who presented his findings this summer at the 2004 Eastern Ergonomics Conference and Exposition in New York City.
