The Madness has officially begun and, chances are, your workers have more than just their emotions invested in these games.

Just what do they have invested? Eighteen percent of workers confessed to participating in betting pools at work for the NCAA Men’s basketball tournament. That’s straight from a recent survey by CareerBuilder.

The study also broke down the gender of workers who bet. Check out the chart below for the breakdown:

March Madness

    And what do employers do when their offices become casinos in mid-March? According to a 2008 poll by the Society for Human Resource Management, more than seven out of 10 business are completely tolerant of the March Madness polls.

    Many companies that sponsor office pools have reported increased employee camaraderie and morale as a direct result.
