The New Year is almost upon us – and it’s time to start thinking about those resolutions. So why not pledge to ‘green your workplace’ in 2010, asks Mervin De le Torre, interior designer at UAE-based corporate interior solutions specialist BAFCO.
“Most of us spend so much of our lives in the office that we should consider choosing some resolutions for the workplace that can help the environment and even save our company some money along the way. As office specialists, we had a brainstorm among our team and have come up with ten of the best tips to consider as office resolutions for 2010,” he said.
1. It’s cool to be a little warmer
Once you’ve adjusted your air conditioning to the temperature you prefer, turn it back up by just two or three degrees. You’ll hardly know the difference, but it will make a big difference to your consumption. This two degree difference can save the company a significant amount of money over the year. Also, remember to turn your AC off when you leave the office.

2. Be bright and save money
Energy-saving light bulbs are much more efficient than the traditional version and last up to ten times longer. Next time your company needs to replace a bulb, recommend they take the energy saving option.
3. Choose flexible office furniture
Always consider products with highly flexible options as offices tend to change and adapt to newer technology, manpower and market conditions. Demountable partitions, open plan workstations, glass partitions, and heavy duty ergonomic chairs are a must for any modern office.
