Think!

Consider filing under job codes, projects or by months of the year – starting with simple letter trays, which you buy from most stationary stores or pound shops for as little as £2.

Make things accessible

Placing the most often used items such as pens, staplers, calculators, etc. within easy reach will not only help you get your work done quicker, but it will also avoid you walking around the office and mixing with other people – remember, the virus is still around, so social distancing has to remain especially in the workplace where 3^rd other household will be present.
