Discussions about politics can feel ubiquitous. People share their political opinions on social media, announce their political leanings in public, and are comfortable discussing politics at work. But, political discussions can disrupt workplace harmony.
In fact, a Clutch survey found that nearly one-third of employees believe their company’s productivity has suffered because of political expression at work.
The survey also found that more than half of employees who were uncomfortable or distracted by political expression at work believe their company should implement a political expression policy.
