Demotivated employees can be a big problem for a business. This negative energy towards work can often stem from an unorganised workspace, creating a cluttered environment where work can become more challenging. If expectations are high in an out-dated environment, it makes it virtually impossible for employees to get on with work. Trying to solve and manage problems gets more and more challenging when the workspace is full of useless items. These items may include full cabinets, old computers, broken machinery or just a messy desk! Finding things becomes harder, making expectations harder to reach, eventually making workers dissatisfied with work and unmotivated to carry on.
Efficient housekeeping isn’t just about increasing work speeds, it can be incredibly detrimental to health and safety. If floors and halls are filled with cabinets, wires or general waste, it can be a slip/ trip hazard to visitors or staff. Rubbish filled floors may also create slippery or greasy surfaces which are not the nicest to walk through! Low cleanliness of workspaces requires close attention to reduce the chances of someone hurting themselves. Good housekeeping is also a basic part of fire prevention.
If your workspace has cabinets, they most likely contain things which are no longer needed in the process of your work. By filling these storage solutions with old equipment, it eliminates the whole idea of being effective and productive throughout the day. Some things may only be used monthly or annually, therefore keeping them at the front of the shelf isn’t the most efficient way of using your storage.
It is understandable that you may not want to throw away your equipment or machinery, even if it isn’t used often. If this is the case, it may be worth having self-storage. Self-storage is for people who have lots of excess stock, or don’t have enough storage space on their own premises. Therefore, storage containers offer the simplicity of holding your stuff, .without the sacrifice of security.
You may be due a clear out, and what better time than at the start of the new financial year! Start decluttering your workspace and watch your productivity fly high. If you are struggling to decide if things need to kept or can be thrown, consider self-storage.
