INTRODUCTION
Technology is a great word nowadays having a beauty
impact on the lives of people and most importantly day to
day activities in which individuals indulge. Digital tools
and technology is an individual sector that is currently on
the top in all different aspects either on the business side or
on the regular activities of human beings. The presentation
focuses over the increasing use of mobile devices and other
technology that affects the way a human beings work either
in better manner or for worst. The issues of work life
balance are also highlighted along with the impacts of
technology and other devices on it.

 Technology is one mean in every human beings life for simplifying there activities and their day to day lives. The debate is about
how mobile devices and other technology tools have affected the way individuals work. It is very prominently said that mobile and
other technological devices have become the basic need of an individual. There are several different needs of human beings and one
of which is mobile devices.
 Technology has been evolving since the very beginning and from the very early stages. Earlier when mobile phones were invented
it was just a communication tool which connects people from one place to another holding a keypad technology when we click on
buttons it is used to type or dial a number. But today a mobile phones technology have evolved and reach to another level from the
keypad phones to the smartphones which do not have even a single button.
 Mobile phones are not just only e technological instrument which have been evolved but other devices such as computer’s have
also changed into a revolutionary tech tools. Computers when invented were just a instrument with CPU unit, a monitor, a
keyboard and mouse. Which the evolution and passages time computers transformed into laptop and laptops have transferred into
tablets which can be carried easily from one place to another holding a whole lot of information from all over the world and
working with all the updated techniques and software’s invented.
How using mobile devices and other
technology affects the way we work, for
better or worse?

 It is very significant that mobile phones and technologies like computers,
laptops and tablets have brought huge change in working environment and
working ways of organisations either small or big.
 Mobile phones have made the communication faster and easier people can
interact for hours with one another from one place to another and by staying in
any corner of the world.
 Mobiles is a very small tool which is portable and light weighted and
nowadays it’s even slimmer making it easier for human beings to carry it with
them anywhere and at any time.
 Business strategies and working environment have evolved immensely over
the past years which is made possible by the swift integration of various
technological tools which have automated the tasks and made the business
processes simpler and more efficient. Mobile technology has been the most
essential trend that have taken the business world and have been rapidly
penetrated.

 The upward shift towards the usage of mobile phones in the work
environment have transform the economic landscape also over the past
years. mobile communication and connectivity have been evolving
changing and becoming more efficient day by day making the business
communication more easy and more productive as plans can be created
over the mobile phones institution of messages.
 Developments in mobile and other technological devices have generated
improvement in several different business domains and have made the
work much more easier and less time consuming. Mobile phones and
technological devices have provided the organisations and opportunity to
complete the work and other business activities in no time and in the
most productive way.
 Earlier in business communication is considered a long and a very time
consuming process mainly when it is being conducted outside the
business.

 Nowadays business communication have taken and upside turn and the messages which took months to reach to the receiver
have now been delivered to them in just one second by just few clicks without even taking a single step.
 This is a revolution which have been brought by mobile phones and other digital technologies in the working and operations of
an individual organisation and in the lives of human beings along with the way they work. As known that every coin has two
sides of it one is positive and the second is negative, therefore positivity and benefits which abroad by technologies and mobile
devices in the ways people work are beneficial to them but there are other negative aspects also which are related to it.
 As we were discussing about impacts of mobile devices and other technological tools on the way we work it has brought both the
better and the worst for the people and for the organisations.
 The most interesting and the negative impact which is faced by human beings for individuals while they are working either on
their own or in an organisation is the misbalances created in their personal and professional life. Mobile phones and digital
Technologies have increased the accessibility and connectivity of people with one another but have also intruded in the regular
day to day lives of individuals as well.

 The work life balance of people have been effective and being affected
in a very negative and the worst way because now they have the ability
of working anytime from anywhere which is causing a whole lot of
problems in their personal lives.
 Now employees are being forced to work for long hours in their offices
and if that is not possible they are being forced to work at their homes
on there laptops and there mobile phones.
 When there were no technology for just a limited technology was
present the individuals used to go to their offices work in their working
hours and then return to their homes to live their personal lines with
their families friends and other related people. What is the situation
have been entirely changed because employees are forced to work from
home or to work when it is required by the organisation and the orders
are being given for work by the managers and the higher authorities.

Continue…
 The employees have felt a lot of disturbance and faces a
lot of problems in their personal life due to the increased
level of work in their workplace and even at their homes.
The unbalanced work-life is the biggest and the worst
outcome of evolution and enhanced use of technologies
either mobile phones or laptops for other software or
hardware instrument.

The employees are human beings who needs to manage their professional and personal lives in order to work and run
their lines in the best manner. But as discussed that increased use of mobile phones and other technological devices
have implemented the positive and negative impacts the worst outcome of it is the unbalanced work life. The issue of
in balanced work life is very influential on the a employee or an individual work and also on the organisation as well
because of the end employees work for them and if they are not performing well and their productivity is hindered
therefore the company’s productivity will also be hindered. The biggest impact of extra working hours and extra
workload on employees which day complete by taking time out of their personal lives is over their performances and
their productive level.
Issues about work/life balance.

Continue…
 Employee is also a human being who have their limits and once
these limits are crossed their productivity and work
performance will automatically deteriorate. The increased level
of stress and extra workload will cause high number of
absenteeism and staff sickness along with the more impacting is
the increasing number of staff turnover.
 If the employees are not satisfied and they are facing problems
they will automatically start reducing their level of productivity
which will initially affects the company and their performance
level and then result in lowering number of staff retention ratio
and lowering the level of talent restored in the organisational
structure.
 Therefore the issue of work life balance will be impacting first
on the individual in the very beginning but once it crosses the
limit then it will automatically hinder the company’s objectives
their activity level and ultimately their talent retention numbers.

The presentation concludes and summarises that mobile devices and other technological tools have a very large and
the most potential impact on the ways by which individuals and organisations work as compared to the earlier
situation when these technologies our not. The increased use of mobile phones and digital technologies have draught
better ways of working and connectivity towards the organisation and to the people but the very impactful and
hindering factor is the increasing in balance in the personal and professional lives of people that hinders the ultimate
objective of individuals as well as of the company.
