(prHWY.com) December 4, 2012 - Ontario, Canada -- Let's face it. There are pros and cons to office relocation. You put great thought and planning into the task prior to and during your move to ensure the pros outweighed the cons. But what happens now that you are in your new space? This guide aims to help you handle the challenges of change in your new office.

Section one- the internal struggle

Office relocation enables companies to have enhanced opportunities for growth. Perhaps the space better suits your company needs, or you are closer to an area that has a higher success rate for your type of business. But before being able to exceed externally, you should first examine your internal surroundings to optimize your chances for success.

A top factor to consider now that your office has relocated is the effect it has on your staff. Their direct surroundings affect them much more greatly than the logical reasons the company has relocated. The areas that most often need improvement are in the quality of office light and ventilation, availability of break out space, and promotion of ergonomics.

? The amount of natural light and air circulation in the space your office has relocated to is very important to consider. Natural light and proper ventilation are necessary for employee productivity and overall health. In the long run, this can make a great difference in productivity for your staff, as well as reducing eye strain, headaches, and fatigue. However, if the space you have picked has limitations in these areas, don't worry just yet. It may not be feasible to break down walls or add in extra windows. If you can, great! But chances are that won't be a possibility. Options to consider are full spectrum lamps for desks to reduce harmful effects due to lack of natural light, or room/tabletop air purifiers and larger leafed plants to combat ventilation issues.

? Implementing a break out space in your office layout can greatly increase employee morale and productivity. It's not just meeting at the water cooler any longer. Break out space offers employees an area to have a temporary respite from their work to aid in fresh thinking and creativity, as well as the opportunity to be used for informal meetings when needed. It's a good idea to furnish the area more comfortably and colorful than work spaces so that staff are able to reset and relax, as well as connecting with each other to establish a corporate community. Being aware of the need for this when you are planning your commercial moving and design will give you a jump on success in your new location.

? The science of work can make or break a good workplace and its employees. Specifically, assessing ergonomic needs now that you have relocated your office has a direct relationship to success. Researching which products may be of use in your office is always a great place to start. Document holders, chairs, mice/keyboards, as well as sit-stand solutions are a few of many options. In addition to this, a great recommendation is to have ergonomic stations at your office. Post tips on proper posture and other adjustments to work habits that can improve performance and decrease repetitive stress around the office. This will help your staff work more quickly and without strain or fatigue in the long term, as well as provide an avenue to connect with co-workers and increase employee morale in the short-term.

With information at hand to increase productivity internally, your company will be better prepared to face many challenges. With your office relocation a sense of corporate camaraderie, wellness, and productivity will come. Great success awaits; are you ready for it?
