National Office
Day 2013
February 13 has been
designated National Office
Day 2013 to coincide with the first
day of the inaugural Office Interiors
show, taking place at Earls Court,
London on 13-14 February 2013.
Organised by Diversified Business
Communications UK, the company
behind office* and Office Interiors,
National Office Day has been set
up to highlight the importance of
well designed office environments to
morale, motivation and productivity.
Office Interiors event manager
Ali Mead said: “Most of us spend
more time in our office than we do
at home, but this is rarely reflected
in the investment of either time or
money in providing a healthy, effective
environment in which to work. Yet
the companies that do understand
this concept clearly benefit by having
better staff morale, higher staff
retention rates and a much happier
work force overall. A professional
office also makes customers feel more
confident and reflects your corporate
brand values.”
Office Interiors is a new trade
exhibition for the office interiors
industry featuring office lighting,
storage, receptions, partitioning, design
and fit-out.
