Organize your Home Office Day

Organize Your Home Office Day is an annual American holiday dedicated to setting up and tidying up your home office. Today, many people who start their own business abandon traditional offices and adapt their homes for work purposes. In addition, home offices are often created by freelance workers.

History

The story of Organize Your Home Office Day begins with an initiative from homeofficelife.com. It was established to remind people of the importance of keeping their workplace in order.

The active emergence of home offices began around the 20th century. Usually, psychologists, lawyers, detectives, and similar professionals set up workrooms in their houses. In a globalized world, many workers are shifting to a home-based work format, allowing them to manage chores and work simultaneously.

The real peak in the popularity of home offices came in 2019 when the Covid-19 pandemic began. Many workers had to adjust to working from home.

Interesting Facts

• To quickly get into the habit of tidying up your place, it’s better to do it after each workday. Then the next morning will always start with a cozy and organized workplace, and you won’t have to clean up before the new day begins.
• Workplace clutter is a myth. Psychologists have proven that a clean and tidy workplace makes workers more energetic, efficient, improves mood, and reduces fatigue during activity.
