Anyone for a game of Tea-Dodge? – One Essex recruitment agency's take on the tea-break

Do you have a tea-dodger in your office? Anyone not pulling their weight in the company kitchen

? According to a survey conducted by Cafdirect earlier this year, workers in Essex and across the country are all in a stir when it comes to a workplace cuppa, with some employees doing all the brewing, whilst others shirk their tea duties regularly.

'As office politics goes, the humble tea round would seem an unlikely cause of controversy but, with some making markedly more tea than others, workers are coming to blows over brews,' Cafedirect chief executive, Anne MacCaig, explained.

Some companies even report employees purposefully making a terrible brew in order to get out of any future tea runs. No wonder employees nationwide are reaching boiling point!

All a storm in a teacup? Experts in their field, Essex recruitment agency, Prime Appointments, think not:

Working in recruitment in Suffolk and in Essex recruitment, we get to hear a lot of office gossip,' say the temp agency. Our workers, placed in jobs in Sudbury, Witham, Colchester, Chelmsford and other Essex jobs and Suffolk jobs, report that women tend to make more tea than men, with men more likely to invent flimsy excuses to keep out of the kitchen!' CafDirect's findings echo this, with the added report that some women may use tea-making as an excuse for a gossip or change of scene.

With the reports findings about tea-time contention backed up by Prime Appointment's access to office gossip, perhaps recruitment companies should be testing tea-making skills too when it comes to placing people in a new job!
