British workers do like Mondays, with few people dreading turning up at the office after the weekend, according to a poll by HR consultancy Chiumento.

It found two out of three actually feel positive about the start of the week, with only one in 20 admitting to feeling nervous on a Sunday evening about the prospect of a new working week.

Workers in smaller organisations are less likely to get the Monday blues than those in larger firms, the study showed.
The longer workers remain with the same employer, the more likely they are not to enjoy going to the office on a Monday.

Chiumento chief executive Sarah Chiumento says: "Although employees seem to be generally positive about Monday starts, employee engagement, or lack of it, is still an issue for many organisations."
