With spring just around the corner, most homeowners are gearing up for spring cleaning. However, it is important to know that spring cleaning is never limited to just your home. Most offices could use a proper spring cleaning to help put team members on the right direction. So how should office employees approach spring cleaning? Here are some tips:
- Do not try to tackle spring cleaning without some forethought. Look at your space and determine how much time you will need to properly go through everything. Divide your office into sections instead of attempting to tackle everything at once.
- Create a system for your paperwork. While many offices are attempting to go paper-free, the truth remains that paperwork is still prominent within offices. Instead of leaving piles of paperwork around your space for weeks at a time, create a system with cabinets or organizers to help stay organized.
- Clear off the clutter on your desk. The only objects that should remain on your work surface are those that are used on a daily basis. These objects should include your computer system, phone system, a writing utensil, and a legal pad of paper. All other objects should have another “home” until you are ready to use them.
- Attack the spaces that you use for your miscellaneous items. The constant present of clutter could lead to distractions and lower your productivity levels.
- Your computer needs spring cleaning as well. Take the time to organize your current emails and files while deleting those you no longer need. This will help your computer run more smoothly while also helping to increase your productivity.
- Consider replacing some of your older office furniture while spring cleaning. Unstable desks and uncomfortable chairs can reduce productivity as well as morale throughout the office.
