When you’re moving the business out of the home and into real premises, you need to consider the workplace as an asset of the business. The better you use your assets, the stronger your business. That goes for the workplace. If you don’t take the time to choose the right location and take care of the premises, it will impact your team, it will impact your costs, and will have a huge butterfly effect throughout the business.

Keep it convenient

When choosing a location for the business, you need to think not only about finding the right size and layout, but also the right placement. How close is it to any suppliers or wholesalers you rely on? If you’re hiring staff, is it easily accessible? Of course, if it’s a retail business, then you need to make sure it’s situated somewhere that gets plenty of consumer foot-traffic. As with all real estate, it’s about location, location, location but a lot of business owners fail to think about how a different location can impact issues as wide as supply costs to how it impacts employee satisfaction.

Keep it comfortable

What are you filling that workplace with? When it comes to the comfort of the employee, then nothing will impact it quite as much as the furniture. Ergonomic options like Ugoburo chairs and desks won’t just make a desk job more comfortable. They make a real difference in preventing common employee injuries like back pain, repetitive strain injury, and carpal tunnel syndrome. The wellbeing of your employees is now your responsibility and you can be on the hook for any costs incurred by disabilities or injuries caused by uncomfortable working conditions.

Keep it protected

Employees can also be at risk from the environment itself. A workplace that isn’t protected from the elements outside can cause issues with damp and mold, not to mention causing the cost of HVAC to soar. There’s a good chance that the building you use hasn’t been updated in years if not decades, so look at new windows, doors, and options like Guycan commercial roofing to ensure it’s thoroughly insulated. Take a closer look at any heating and air conditioning appliances to make sure they’re well-maintained and not vastly outdated models.

Keep it safe

Business premises are also a common target of crime, such as burglary or vandalism. This is because thieves know that you’re likely to have valuable property on the premises. Not only should you invest in security systems and reinforced locks on doors and windows, but options like CCTV Direct cameras serve as a deterrent. Not only can it protect your assets, but it can protect employees, as well. A mugging or an assault that happens on your property can become legally complicated for a business owner, so do what you can to prevent it and to give your team a better peace of mind.

So many issues commonly faced by businesses can be directly traced back to the premises they choose and how well they look after them. Don’t ignore what could potentially be one of the most important resources at your disposal.
