Most employees tend to ignore 40% of emails daily
An average employee receives close to 180 emails every day and does not bother to open 40 percent of those and even if he or she manages to open some, the reply rate is just 16 percent, a new report revealed on Wednesday.
The email behavior at the workplace highlights that a widespread misuse of email has led to unwanted inbox clutter, according to the email collaboration solution provider Hiver.
“Email clearly remains an essential and popular way of communicating, but there are a number of findings from the Hiver State of Email report that indicates that it is broken and requires a significant rehaul,” said Niraj Rout, co-founder, and CEO of Hiver.
