Things You Can Do to Avoid Getting Bored at Work
Performing the same tasks over a long period of time can cause boredom at work, this literally doesn’t mean that one is tired of work but according to research boredom creeps into almost every workplace, even when employees enjoy flexible work. Fortunately, there are several things you can do to help your team members stay excited about their jobs, whether they’re in the office or working from home.

Share the load. Make sure you’re spreading the boring tasks evenly across your team – so it’s fair and remember, just because someone doesn’t moan about a task, doesn’t mean they enjoy it some employees will prefer to grin and bear the boredom, than look negative.
Give them more responsibility. In many cases, boredom essentially comes down to lack of a challenge; if your employee is bored then you’re probably not getting the most out of them. Set more difficult challenges, increase their target, offer them different tasks, jobs and even new projects. Note keep employees in the loop to make sure you’re not overdoing it and putting too much on their shoulders.
