How to increase employee efficiency during a crisis

People who are satisfied with their work, as a rule, are less likely to get sick and quit, which means greater productivity in the workplace. Moreover, some studies show that the direct costs of replacing an employee can reach 50-60% of an employee's annual salary, significantly increasing the company's costs without compensation.

Material motivation is not enough and this fact does not require proof. In addition to bonuses and corporate culture, it is very important to provide employees with everything they need office supplies and surrounding office space.

Here are some tips on how to inexpensively but effectively ennoble your office:

WE MEET BY CLOTHING

Most offices make a first impression, both on clients and applicants, with their reception area. To create a welcoming environment, introduce as much natural light as possible and emphasize the positive atmosphere with the help of original decor (for example, a logo made of hypoallergenic Scandinavian moss, original posters or decor or furniture made of corrugated cardboard).

Do not lose sight of the psychology of color. Cream and beige give a sophisticated look. Blue signals of honesty and loyalty. Green makes people think about prestige and wealth.

REMOVE THIS WALL!

Many offices have abandoned work in separate offices in favor of open concepts that promote communication between employees. Thanks to modular systems that offer endless configurations and settings to meet the needs of each team, it is possible to arrange a work space inexpensively, but with taste.

SOME PRIVACY PLEASE

Collaboration is important, but you still need places that assume privacy and confidentiality.

That's why offices that have adopted an open concept should also offer separate workplaces or restricted spaces. Elements of furniture, such as drawers and filing cabinets, will help to further strengthen the sense of security.

WORK SPACE OUTSIDE OF WORK

If your recreation room is just a dim pantry with a microwave oven and a refrigerator, it will not help the development of socialization in the workplace. Use original solutions even in the most limited spaces. For example, bean bag chairs or hammocks.

The creation of relaxing relaxation areas for employees maximizes the positive atmosphere in the team and effective work!
