  2. The Story: As adults, we spend about 121000 hours on average during our lifetime at work. Work life makes up about one-third of our active adult life. So how we spend our time at work is enormously important. Which also means that having fun is necessary. The PlayIndex & PlayQuotient The PlayIndex is a website that will allow users to input details anonymously about their company, their level of happiness at work, if they are having fun, ways in which they feel that improvements can be made to their work life. They will also have the opportunity to input their moods at various hours of their day at work, so they can document their emotional states through their work-days. Work life: Under the microscope The PlayQuotient is a composite score that is made up of employee evaluation of different work life-related criteria. The PlayQuotient will reflect different aspects of fun at a workplace, be it a playful environment, fun deliverables and challenges, creative freedom etc. This way companies will also have an idea of how they are performing with regards to their employees’ job satisfaction. The companies with the happiest employees will be ranked in a leaderboard according to their PlayQuotient.

HR Manager, USA: “I want to help create an organization where people are having so much fun, they loathe leaving office”. Business Student, Australia: “A lot of my friends are stuck in the perpetual “student zone” where they bounce from one higher degree to another, partly due to fear that modern workplace stifles learning, curiosity and knowledge-seeking”.
