1. Emptying

The first thing you need to do before you start cleaning is to empty all the shelves, drawers, and tables. It is best to start from scratch. You need to place your stuff on the floor or a container for sorting. After you cleared the shelves, tables, and drawers, you can start wiping the dirt and stain of your workspace.

2. Assessing

After you clean the desktops and shelves, it is time for you to assess the office materials and personal stuff you stored on your shelves and drawers. This might seem like laborious work, but you might be surprised how much waste you have in store in your drawers and shelves.

While assessing and sorting, make sure to provide three separate containers labeled “keep”, “archive”, “junk”. Keep is reserved for the materials you need to perform your everyday work. Archive stores important documents and information that must be kept but doesn’t need to be displayed every day. Lastly, a junk box is for those materials that need disposal.

3. Organizing

After you have sorted your office materials, you can start reorganizing them in your work area. Make sure to place the “Keep” items within your reach. You can start using shelf and drawer organizers that can stop your things from being disheveled and scattered.

4. Cleaning

After organizing the workspace, make sure to check the office kitchen and throw away food wrappers, unwanted food, expired food, and other kitchen paraphernalia which are no longer needed. Clean the appliances and utensils where molds can build up. It is obligatory to clean the restrooms and to empty garbage cans.  

5. Sanitizing

Make sure to sanitize all areas in your office especially the toilet, bathroom floors, kitchen countertops, office workspace desktops, chairs and cushions, walls, lavatories, and office materials and appliances.  This helps to keep your office from building up molds and germs that are harmful to your employees’ health and safety.
