A report has found that workers waste up to two hours a day checking sites such as Facebook and Twitter.

“Employers are putting protocols and procedures in place to stop this and it’s becoming more and more common that they’re written into contracts of employment,” said Mark Fielding, CEO of the Irish Small and Medium Enterprises Association (ISME).

The employment market report was carried out by recruitment firm Cpl Resources, which also found that 50pc of employers allow their workers to have unlimited social media access.

“Some businesses are able to monitor what’s happening on a PC and what the traffic is,” said Mr Fielding.

However, the problem is that employees are now able to use their own smartphones in the office.
