## Automating busywork with Asana

Busywork. We’ve all experienced it. It’s the manual, repetitive tasks and processes that quickly eat up your time and keep your projects from moving forward. Today [82% of workers report feeling burned out](https://blog.asana.com/2019/07/workload-effort/), largely because of the busywork associated with checking in on progress, adjusting due dates, and assigning tasks. Moreover, [one in four businesses report having zero process in place to distribute this work](https://blog.asana.com/2019/07/workload-effort/). We want to change that.
