BOSSES should keep a closer eye on their employees after it was revealed that nearly one in five people have played a game during a work meeting.
That is according to a new study by network provider, Three, which showed that Candy Crush Saga was the most popular game among distracted staff.
According to the research, conducted with 1,000 Brits, 18 per cent of smart phone or tablet users said they played a game during a work meeting.
And on average a sneaky mid-meeting gaming session lasts for about 16 minutes with other popular titles being Angry Birds and Solitaire.
Just under one in ten touch-screen gamers even admitted to playing for more than 40 minutes in work time.
But they have nothing on Conservative MP, Nigel Mills, who was caught playing Candy Crush Saga on his iPad during parliamentary committee for two hours in December.
