Other results included, of the 1,000 workers surveyed roughly half had experienced dropped calls or lack of signal within their office building, with three quarters saying it was a weekly occurrence.
Head of products for telecoms at Arqiva, John Lillistone said: “With 43 per cent of those we asked saying that poor mobile coverage does or would significantly impact their ability to do their job - and a quarter claiming it already causes them extreme levels of stress and frustration - indoor coverage is clearly not an issue that companies can afford to ignore.
“Looking to the future, younger ‘mobile first’ workers appear particularly intolerant of the growing problem. Amongst generations X and Y the willingness to leave their job over poor coverage rose to over a third at 35 per cent."
He continued: "Mobile coverage is a complicated issue, which no one party can solve on its own. Networks, architects, builders and employers all have a part to play, and as the UK battles to become a leader of the 5G connected world, it is vital for them all to work together.”
