Music @ workplace. Is it a Good idea?

Life today is full of stress and anxiety and especially in metropolitan cities situation is the worst. No need to explain, you can easily analyze when you are in hurry to reach the office thinking of some of your personal tensions and then the whole day hectic schedule where there is no time to relax and release your stress. On top of all, there is noise pollution, air pollution leading to a whole distress and discomfort. You really would want to figure out one way wherein you can relax even while working, completeting your daily work and yet being attentive. The answer that I can give you is listen to -Music!!!!!!!
Music is a universal language that transcends boundaries. In Victorian times, handloom weavers sang as they worked. It was not because they loved it ,apart from that, it was to keep themselves awake and pepped up.Railroad workers and farmers sang to relieve monotony and to stay alert to dangers.
If you ask me music in the workplace promotes positive mood, sense of team, improves alertness and can lessen the event of accidents. Music motivates workers, decreases boredom and leads to increased productivity perhaps because people work in time with the beat.
It may be any form of music but when you sit down for a moment, close down your eyes to listen, your heart rate and breathing slows down with your thoughts. As you get tuned to the music you get free of all the worries and concerns of the outer world and an inner journey begins. Within a couple of minutes, you will find yourself refreshed and renewed as if the sound has washed you and cleaned.
A lot of people find it as a biggest distraction, wherein they fear the loss of productivity. Which might be true in some cases, however, its been proved that music is a biggest stress buster. If you can't play it all over the office, it should be limited for an individual access.
But I still agree to one thing -If there is an objection from any employee, one must abandon the idea of having music. To begin playing music in the workplace without everyone's support will drive out those employees who didn't want it. Turnover is too expensive. Music isn't worth that much.
