Why? A few reasons. First, they take up space; the more you let files accumulate, the more office storage space you have to supply. Second, files are delicate. All it takes is one bump or drop, and the bulging file you&#8217;ve been slaving over for months instantly scatters itself across the floor in a horrifyingly-unorganized mess. Third, files are a waste of resources. They are heaps of wood pulp that sit collecting dust for months, sometimes years, slowly migrating from desktops to file cabinets to storage boxes to basements, most never to be looked at again.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>But perhaps the worst aspect of paper files is that they have become the very metaphor for work itself. Files piling up on the surface of your desk only remind you how much work is bottling up behind the task you&#8217;re already slaving on, which steals your present energy and concentration. If we could only rid ourselves of these files, we just might stand a chance of reducing not just the physical clutter around us, but the emotional clutter and visual oppression that degrade our morale.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<!--more-->\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">How E-File Organization is Modifying the Workforce<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>It&#8217;s possible!
