Wakefit has announced the ‘Right to nap’ initiative to promote and normalize afternoon naps at work. The company has announced it will provide 2:00 pm to 2:30 pm as the official nap hours, encouraging employees to take a well-deserved break amidst hectic work schedules. 

Through this initiative, the company hopes to start a sleep revolution while also encouraging other companies to adopt the initiative. 

Chaitanya Ramalingegowda Director & Co-Founder, Wakefit said, “Research shows that afternoon naps help with memory, concentration, creativity, and productivity. A NASA study reveals that a 26-minute catnap can enhance performance by 33%, while a Harvard study shows how naps prevent burnout.”

He added, “Keeping these in mind, we have decided to normalize afternoon naps at work & declare 2 to 2:30 pm as official nap time for all our employees. From now on, our employees will have the right to nap between 2 to 2:30 pm and their calendars will be blocked during this time as official nap time.”

He further added, “Through this initiative, we aim to focus on our employees wellbeing, while also fostering a culture that strongly encourages self-care. We also urge other brands to join us in this effort to promote a healthy lifestyle for their employees”. 

An afternoon nap helps the body recharge and refocus on the task at hand. Also, this will improve workplace productivity and motivation. Conversations around afternoon naps became predominant with the advent of work from home, and companies are slowly but steadily realizing its importance.
