What’s the real benefit of adding those small dividers between desks in an open office?
Desk partitions (or screens) are a simple tool to combat open-plan fatigue. Their main benefits are:
- Visual Privacy: Creates a personal focus zone and reduces distracting movements.
- Noise Reduction: Absorbs some sound for quieter concentration.
- Personal Space: Defines your area and can be used for pinning notes.
