---

The nature of procrastination is usually analysed from the angle of the psychological

mechanism, in the aspects of demotivating factors; however, there are not many studies emphasiz-
ing procrastination provoked by mismanagement. A similar situation is also observed with regard

to multitasking analysed in this article, which is recorded at work not because employees naturally
like to multitask but because they have no other way out. The purpose of this article is to present
the results of the empirical study revealing the nature of procrastination and multitasking in the
workplace. The study involved 995 employees of Polish (N = 500) and Lithuanian (N = 495) private

sector organizations. It has been found that a share of employees are forced to become procrasti-
nators and multitaskers due to management flaws. In addition, procrastination and multitasking

are related by medium strength statistical relationships, regardless of the country. The value of the
research is presupposed by the fact that it presents new and original data showing the situation of
multitasking and procrastination in Lithuanian and Polish organizations. These results improve the
literature on procrastination by providing additional confirmatory evidence on how more flexible
work organization can serve for better understanding of causes of multitasking and procrastination.
