Organize your Workspace
Your workspace, like your home, needs to be well organized. Use these handy tips to get your started:
LAY OUT YOUR WORKSPACE
* Use "L" and "U" shaped desks for the most efficient workspaces
* Store your gadgets and equipment -- telephone, computer, etc. -- on one "wing"
* Leave the other wing free to spread out while you work
* Have everything you need within arm's reach
* Put your telephone on the side of the desk opposite your writing hand
* This way you can hold the telephone and take notes at the same time
* Add a hutch for extra storage for books, supplies, and equipment
* Avoid cluttering your workspace by filing away personal items
PUT ERGONOMICS TO WORK FOR YOU
* Pay special attention to your body -- aches and pains aren't normal
* Do not generally bend, squat, or stretch at your workstation
* Place your monitor at eye level -- if not, raise your monitor
* Place your wrists flat when typing or using a mouse
* If not, use a keyboard tray or wrist rest when typing
* When sitting, your thighs need to be parallel to the floor
* Your calves need to be perpendicular to the floor with feet on the ground
* If not, adjust your chair or bring in a footrest
ORGANIZE YOUR SUPPLY STORAGE
* Do not hoard supplies at your desk
* Keep only what you need right now at your workstation
* Use a separate supply area for storing bulk amounts
* Store away extras in labeled containers and group like items together
* Ex: writing utensils, clips, notepads, etc.
* Place flat items (paper, sheet protectors, and folders) in stacking trays
* Place drawer dividers in drawers to keep small items in order
* Place envelopes and note cards in a small vertical rack
* Use bracket shelves above your desk for additional storage
Stay healthy.
