Spring is the time when we try to bring everything in order. The same can be said about office. Let’s declutter and clean our offices and keep them tidy.
First of all try to get rid of all the unnecessary things that clutter your work space. Throw all the papers that you don’t need. Get rid of the unnecessary knickknacks, pens, etc.
Experts say that it is very important to have special zones for daily functioning. Usually you will need to have a workspace with a computer, a storage area, a filing area for the documents and a place for meetings.
Your workplace with a computer should not be cluttered with things that you don’t need. The only things that you will need in this area are a computer and a notebook with several pens. All the other things should be stored somewhere else.
Experts also recommend creating a special system for your papers. It is difficult to recommend something here, because every person should create it according to his needs.
