Background
The very first version of what we now know as email was invented in 1965 at Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) This was a part of the university’s Compatible Time-Sharing System, which allowed users to share files and messages on a central disk (https://www.theguardian.com/technology/2016/mar/07/email-ray-tomlinson-history). Today about 333.2 billion emails are sent every day (https://earthweb.com/how-many-emails-are-sent-per-day/) and the average office worker receives about 121 emails and sends about 40 emails for business purposes everyday day (https://www.outlooktracker.com/news/how-many-emails-does-the-average-office-worker-receive/). In total it is estimated to exists about 5.59 billion active email accounts worldwide (https://www.outlooktracker.com/news/how-many-emails-does-the-average-office-worker-receive/). Even though many organizations worldwide are benefitting from using email to communicate, research shows that the abundance of mail also can be a course for stress among employees. Multiple studies carried out (https://profjackson.com/email-stress/) indicating that a majority of people have increased stress levels related to email stressors, such as email overload .
Research shows that a business that has a 200-strong workforce on the UK minimum wage would pay its staff a staggering £1.2m every year for reading and sending emails.
