Following a nation-wide adjudication process, the government tasked Productivity SA to promote productivity and grow employment in South Africa.
In the spirit of that goal, the organisation will host The Productivity SA Awards, which aims to recognise creativity, innovation and productivity within South African enterprises.
The awards, set for 21 October at Gallagher Estate, Midrand, will be judged out of four categories, the emerging, corporate, public and cooperative sector.
The criteria employed to judge finalists includes the impact of productivity on the bottom line of profit-making enterprises and the impact relative to costs for non-profit-making entities.
The chief executive officer for Productivity SA, Mothunye Mothiba, said, “Productivity SA focuses on critical growth sectors through awarding best-performing enterprises. The primary aim of the awards is to ensure that the country’s enterprises are more competitive.”
Even if your business or the company you are affiliated with may not be up for the awards, here are five tips from Lifehack to keep you productive at work:
- Take regular breaks to refresh the mind
- Pace yourself and balance your workload so that your mind is not overloaded
- Put your work first and do not get distracted
- Don’t open browsers unless you need them for your current task
- Try to be happy and optimistic and you will easily get through the workload.
