LEARNING PAPERLESS WORKPLACE BASICS EMPOWERS EMPLOYEES Many find the adjustment to a paperless workplace daunting, but becoming acquainted with document management software can conserve money, time, and frustration. The clutter that comes with a desk job has left many office employees marveling at the newfound convenience and efficiency that paperless technology offers.
Learning more about paperless document management has made a big difference for officials working for officials working at the East Petersburg Borough Council in Pennsylvania. Lancaster Online reported that the township plans to incorporate shared note-taking applications into their daily grind. "Once we master that [note-taking application], we'll be able to share documents across the tablets and the borough computers," township manager Cheri Grumbine explained to the source, regarding East Peterburg's plans to increase electronic workflow in the office. Though tablets will pose as an initial expense, going paperless will save the township thousands of dollars in the years to come. As of now, employees are already using the new devices in council meetings. Part of what makes the switch to paperless so nerve-wracking for some companies is a lack of consumer knowledge. Martin Stein, a contributor to BizJournals, notes that understanding electronic workflow is critical to using document management systems effectively.

It may take some time to master the basics of working in a paperless environment, but learning a little can go a long way for workplaces that thrive on efficiency and ease. _________________________________ Ready to kick your paper habit?
