The Real Cost of Office Noise

The real cost of office noise (and how to stop wasting money)

Let’s be honest: open offices can be incredibly loud.

We all know the feeling of trying to focus while the sales team is on a loud speakerphone two desks over. But here’s the thing—it’s not just annoying. It’s actually costing your business a ton of money.

Let’s do the math

Research shows that employees lose an average of 26 minutes of productive time every single day just from noise disruption—that’s more than three working weeks a year down the drain.

If you have a team of 30 people, and you calculate their hourly cost at around $70, that’s:

30 people × $70/hour × 1 hour/day × 220 workdays = a massive $462,000 lost every year.

Even if a soundproof booth only saves you 10% of that lost time, it’s still recovering about $46,200 in productivity. And a booth costs way less than that.
