OFFICE SPACE: Cubicle and Workplace Management

Managing your workspace is a function of personal choice within company guidelines. A beginning strategy is to confer with your boss and immediate colleagues on issues that enhance individual and group workspaces. Factors to consider are lighting, acoustics and air quality; desk and storage/filing space; ergonomics and access; privacy and personalization. Creating a comfortable environment can enhance your productivity and possibly reduce strain and stress of working in a confined yet open space.
