Organizing Your Desk

Putting it away

Now that you've taken the time to sort through your stuff, you should figure out how to arrange it in a way that will help you perform your duties efficiently.

  • Avoid unnecessary movement by storing often-used items at close range or at eye level.
  • If appropriate, establish separate stations where you work on one specific job duty.
  • Post important reminders at eye level.
  • Limit your desktop to items you use daily.
  • Put books and manuals on a bookshelf. Keep those you use daily within reach.
  • Keep decorative items to a minimum. Check your employer's policy before bringing personal or decorative objects to work.
  • Put items you only use a few times a year in a deep storage area. Make sure they're properly labeled first.
