Passage: A company found that employees who take their full lunch break away from their desks report 20% higher levels of job satisfaction than those who eat at their desks. However, the company also found that both groups of employees completed the same average number of tasks per day.

Which of the following conclusions is most supported by these findings?

  1. Taking a full lunch break away from the desk is not associated with an increase in daily task completion for this company.
  2. The company should require all of its employees to take away-from-desk lunch breaks in order to lift morale without harming output.
  3. Employees who eat at their desks are more efficient workers because they devote more total minutes to working each day.
  4. Job satisfaction exerts no real influence on the long-term productivity of a typical company's overall workforce.
  5. Workers who take a full lunch break away from their desks are measurably more productive than those who eat at their desks.
