Employees who sleep 6 hours or less select less challenging problems, produce fewer creative solutions, exhibit social loafing, and become more deviant and unethical.

“firstly those employees who are under slept will select less challenging problems so you give them the experiment where you give them a range of problems and they just typically will choose listening to voice messages or doing email rather than digging into hard project work secondly of the problems that they do select they end up producing fewer creative solutions those problems and that's an issue because it's supposed to be creativity and ingenuity that's driving businesses forward but you lose that with a lack of sleep the third thing that we found is that when underslept employees are actually working in groups working in teams they just slack off and they just let other people work it's riding the coattails of other people's hard work it's called social loafing doesn't breed good atmosphere the fourth thing that they found was that the less and less sleep that an employee has had the more and more deviant and unethical he became”
