    A study recently conducted in Denmark, under the guidance of, Pernille Stroebaek, expert at the University of Copenhagen. The research results were published in the journal Symbolic Interaction, within thearticle “Let’s Have a Cup of Coffee! Coffee and Coping Communities at Work”.

    The research concerned i Danish civil servants. In the context observed, coffee breaks were identified as the most important factor for personal and social well-being in the workplace. The coffee break leads to the formation of small communities among colleagues and favors the possibility of meeting.

    Groups of colleagues are born above all under the banner of solidarity. Employees come together and team up to support each other and to overcome work and personal difficulties together. Experts noted that newcomers had some difficulty integrating colleagues into communities on formal occasions.

    The meetings in front of the coffee machine, however, would have favored the reception of colleagues who have recently arrived at the office, above all thanks to ainformal atmosphere it's pleasant, which turned out to be able to encourage spontaneous interaction between those who work within the same company.


    I support groups that are created during the coffee break, improve interpersonal relationships. Thanks to the support of colleagues, the employees were more productive once they returned to their desks. So let's try not to give up the right moments of pause. They will benefit us and the whole office.
