Office Design: How To Improve Office Comfort And Productivity

Whether you’re in a new office space or refurbishing your current office, you can increase your office productivity with an effective office design. The ideal office environment is a professional, functional and comfortable space. With an effective office design you can project to your clients that you are the best professional in your field to do business with.

Studies have revealed that office comfort and productivity are interrelated. It only takes a few changes in layout and organization to make your office environment comfortable and highly productive.

Here are some ways to improve office designs today:

  1. Use ergonomic furniture to improve health and comfort in the office. The functional design of ergonomic furniture will minimize bodily discomfort for employees that could distract them from their duties.

  2. Allow your employees to customize their workstations so they can work comfortably. You can do this by providing your employees keyboard trays, anti-glare screens, task lighting and footrests. These extra features will help your employees avoid repetitive stress injuries.
  3. Improve the overall flow of the office. There are ways to layout the office space to allow your employees to have easy access to office equipment and work teams, while still having enough space for individual comfort.

  4. Use mobile furniture. This kind of furniture is adjustable and a great option for any growing business. Easily reconfigure your workstations and rearrange them in the office to always maintain comfort and productivity for all employees.
  5. Create a centralized area for shared office equipment. This includes fax machines, copiers and other noisy machinery. Not only will this help reduce auditory distraction for you employees but also it will improve office workflow and organization. Use panel systems, carpeting and ceiling tiles to absorb sound and enhance privacy for your employees to truly encourage the productivity of your staff.
