Whether you're working from home, working in the office for days and nights, being your own boss or working under someone, a nice workplace is essential. It allows you to concentrate on your work, gives you more job satisfaction and therefore motivation, and makes you more productive. Few people realize that this workplace is the basis of their successful career. With these 5 steps, you can transform the average workplace into a great place to work!

1. Light brings life

Light determines our day and night rhythms, our metabolism and our hormonal balance. Good lighting is therefore important in the workplace, preferably through windows. Light, especially daylight, makes you happier. In addition, the sun boosts your energy level and thus makes you more productive.

2. Clean and tidy!

Did you know that cluttered desks unconsciously cause stress? That's why you should opt for a clean desk policy. Tidy is tidy!

3. Nice what green can do

Green in the office makes us happier, more productive and naturally ensures good acoustics. A summary of facts that almost forces us to bring nature into our home (office).

4. Not too hot, not too cold

Another important factor for a productive workplace is temperature. If it's too hot, you can't concentrate and it's too cold, you're not productive. The ideal working temperature? According to the University of Amsterdam, it is between 19 and 21 degrees.

5. Noise is horror

People are literally stressed out by too much noise. That's all in the little things; a colleague talking on the phone or a radio that is a little too loud. It takes us out of our concentration. The solution? Good acoustics; that works wonders!
