Your Office Temperature is Causing Fights

Are you that sneaky person at work who changes the thermostat to your ideal temperature? According to a new survey, almost 1 in 5 people have done it.

Of the 19% of us who have secretly changed the temperature at work, 13% to make it cooler and 6% to make it warmer. Things don't always go smoothly as 15% of people said they've gotten into an argument with a coworker over the temperature in their office.

Women are more likely to be unhappy with the temperature at work. 55% of women don't like their office's temperature, 36% say it's normally too cold, versus 19% who say it's too hot. It's a more even split for men: 18% say they're usually cold and 17% say they're hot.

For some of us, being unhappy with the office temperature can affect our ability to concentrate. 67% of people say they're less productive when it's too warm, compared to 51% when it's too cold.
