How Much Water Should Your Team Really Be Drinking?

You’ve heard the “8 glasses a day” rule. But when it comes to keeping your team hydrated and productive, there’s more to the story.

Why Hydration at Work Matters

Even mild dehydration (just 1–2% fluid loss) can impact memory, focus, and energy. In fact, studies show that hydrated employees make fewer mistakes, are more alert, and even experience better moods throughout the day.

So, How Much Is Enough?

The right amount of water depends on a few factors like job type, indoor climate, and personal health. Here’s a quick guide:

  • Office Workers: 8–10 cups per day (2–2.5 liters)
  • Active/Outdoor Workers: 12–16 cups (3–4 liters or more)
  • Hot Work Environments: Sip every 15–20 minutes to replace lost fluids

Caffeinated drinks and sodas don’t count; clean, pure water is best.

Make It Easy to Stay Hydrated

If your water source isn’t easy to access or doesn’t taste good, employees won’t drink enough. That’s why businesses across Indiana are switching to bottle-less reverse osmosis systems from Pure Water by CPI. They provide unlimited, clean, and great-tasting water. No bottles, no deliveries, no excuses.

Hydration isn’t just healthy. It’s smart business.
