7 in 10 Singapore bosses get unusually more medical certificates during Mondays

Monday sickness getting worse.

According to a survey by jobsDB Singapore titled Mondayitis Survey, 70% of employers in Singapore have reported that they receive more Medical Certificates (MCs) on a Monday than any other day of the week, and 72% said employees are most commonly late for work on Monday mornings. Further to this, 44% of workers say they are least productive on Mondays and it is their least favourite day of the week (71%).

The Mondayitis Survey canvassing over 4,300 of Singapore workers by jobsDB Singapore indicates that job dissatisfaction can dramatically increase the likelihood of infection.

The findings of the Mondayitis Survey also highlighted potential short-term cures to Mondayitis, including: drinking coffee (55%), chatting with colleagues (48%), surfing social networking sites (27%) and eating junk food (21%).

On Mondays over the following months, jobsDB Singapore will be distributing a range of cures to sufferers in locations across Singapore. Singapore residents are encouraged to visit jobsDB.com.sg for more information on how to cure Mondayitis, and to regularly check the jobsDB Singapore Facebook fan page to get updates on treatment locations.

If you've been wondering whether SBR could work for your company — yes, probably.

A lot of the companies we partner with started as readers. They'd been following our coverage for a while, saw their own customers and competitors in it, and eventually asked the obvious question: could we do something with you? The answer is usually yes. The shape of it depends on what you're trying to do.

The options are broader than most people assume — thought leadership articles, sponsored content, industry summits across Southeast Asia, regional awards programmes, podcasts, and media placements in print and digital. Some partners use one channel; most use a mix. We figure out the right combination by starting with your brief, not with our rate card.

So if the question has been on your mind, here's the easy way to ask it.

We'll tell you honestly whether we can help, and how. It's a better use of everyone's time.
