Despite the growing popularity of messaging services like Slack, email
still reigns supreme as the business communications medium of
choice: more than 205 billion emails were sent per day in 2015. It’s no surprise, then, that email is also a major workplace stressor, with 92% of employees showing elevated blood pressure and heart rate when using email at work (...)Despite studies showing that the average worker checks email 74 times a day — and, in many cases, is lightning-fast at processing it (another study showed that 70% of work-related email is handled within six seconds) — many of us still feel we can’t keep up. Partly, that’s simple math: we’re emailing more than ever. It’s estimated that by 2018 the average employee will send and receive 140 messages per day.
