Aussie workers show true colours!

No Facebooking or blogging while on duty here, according to the results of a recent survey. No siree.

The survey, released by software industry group Business Software Alliance, found that only 22 per cent of Australian workers download non-work-related software on their office computer, compared with 55 per cent of Asian workers and 48 per cent globally. Australian workers are also less likely to download illegal music or movies, with only 16 per cent admitting to the practice, compared with the Asian average of 45 per cent.
