What's behind last month's growth in the construction sector?
The UK's construction sector grew faster than expected in November, confounding some pessimists. Markit's purchasing managers' index for the construction sector rose to 52.8 in November, above expectations of 52.2. A figure above 50 denotes growth in the sector. There's been growth for three consecutive months now, suggesting the weaker period after the Brexit vote was just temporary, as opposed to a long-term trend. To discuss the figures in more detail, Simon spoke to Tim Moore, Senior Economist at IHS Markit.

What would contribute most towards narrowing the north-south divide?- Patrick Woodman, head of research for the Chartered Management Institute.

What would contribute most towards narrowing the north-south divide?- Patrick Woodman, head of research for the Chartered Management Institute.
What would contribute most towards narrowing the north-south divide? Better school results or transport links? According to Britain's biggest business lobby group, the Confederation of British Industry, improved school results are in fact more important. While the government has prioritised faster road and rail links in the Midlands and north of England, ensuring that pupils get good qualifications would be the most effective way of tackling productivity differences across the UK. The CBI's new campaign, 'Unlocking Regional Growth', aims to improve productivity outside London and the south east, as London is 30% more productive than the national average. To comment on the findings, Simon was joined by Patrick Woodman, head of research for the Chartered Management Institute.

UK small business workers are losing 5.5 hours' office time a week because of minor irritations.
It's a common scene in offices across the country; a computer that refuses to connect to the internet in one corner, an annoying colleague wittering on about their weekend plans in another and an air conditioning system that blasts icy cold air in the middle of winter. Workplace annoyances might seem insignificant in isolation, but new research released by Samsung Electronics reveals that UK small business workers are losing 5.5 hours' office time a week because of minor irritations. To find out more about this Greg Watt spoke to Sir Cary Cooper Professor of Organisational Psychology and Health at the Manchester Business School and started by asking him what the biggest office pet peeves are.
