The most popular games among Kazakhstan employees are action games that include shooters, fightings and arcades. Two other thirds of the respondents do not waste their work time on computer games. Moreover, 35 percent of them realize that their colleagues are playing during work time. Regardless of the attitude to computer games, 80 percent of the respondents are not willing to spend lunch time playing games. But the remaining 20 percent are welcoming this option. According to HeadHunter, in 67% of cases, the management is not aware of the employees useing work time inappropriately.
