Mundane tasks at work are frustrating employees and could be fuelling the Great Resignation trend.

Such tasks include responding to emails, scheduling calls and meetings, and inputting data/creating datasets, according to the 2022 Office Worker Survey by enterprise automation software company UiPath.

As such, 52% of the Singapore workers surveyed believe that automation can improve their job performance, namely by saving time, increasing productivity, and creating opportunities to focus on more important work. More than three-quarters (76%) also agree they can focus on more creative work with the help of automation.
