Follow These Tips For A More Organised Office Space

An organised office is a more efficient and therefore more productive environment

. By following a few simple steps you can increase your output without putting more hours in, and who wouldnt want that? Its surprising the amount of time you can save simply by reorganising the space in which you work. Follow these tips from office products supplier Office1web (http://www.office1web.ie/) for a more organised office space and you could find yourself more streamlined and less stressed.

1)Start with a clean slate

Kick off your office re-organisation with a clear out. Youll need more than the occasional tidy of your desk to become really organised. Clear the top of your desk and all your drawers and really take a look at what office supplies youre buried under. Do you really need all of those pieces of paper to hand or can you archive some documents? Do you use all that stationery regularly or could some of it be stored in the stationery cupboard for when you do use it? Most of the things we accumulate directly around us at work are there just because we used them once or twice, not because we need them on a day-to-day basis. Be ruthless and keep only what you need to work efficiently on a regular basis. An uncluttered space could well lead to an uncluttered mind!

2)Sort out that stationery cupboard

Most offices have a cupboard or area in which to keep the office stationary, but having a separate storage area for stationary doesnt help you organise your office unless the office cupboard itself is organised! Too often this area becomes a dumping ground for unwanted bits and pieces (see tip 1!) so that a quick trip to the stationary cupboard becomes a bit of a mission to find what you need. Spend the time sorting the shelves into areas for separate office products, and use common sense about what to keep together (keep small items like pens, pencils, erasers together; copier paper with ink cartridges, etc.), and you will save time in the long-run.

3)Fine tune your filing

Once youve separated the documents you need to keep around you and the ones that can be archived, take a look at your filing system. You can waste precious time searching for documents if theyre not clearly and logically organised. Use hanging folders and sub-files within that, all clearly labelled. Colour coding is a quick way to find the file youre looking for.

4)Dont forget the rest of the office

Its not just your desk, files and stationery that need to be whipped into shape for a more organised office; the whole office space can affect your productivity. For instance, is your office equipment serviced regularly to make sure it doesnt break down just when you need it most? Do you find yourself searching around for a toner cartridge instead of having them close to the printer? Is your office furniture so old and uncomfortable that you need to get up and wander round the office to stretch your legs too frequently? Assess your whole office area and youll be surprised by how much time can be saved by organising every part of the space.
