Office Workers have been given their own virtual community with the
launch of nationalofficeweek.com and its mission statement to “make
office life gorgeous.
Nationalofficeweek.com provides a forum for office workers like you to
earn points, network, upload photos, share information and experiences
as well as providing an office industry voice to lobby and campaign on
key issues affecting all of us.
Nationalofficeweek.com houses 7 key areas to inform, motivate, entertain
and connect office workers:
Office News Express- the UK's favourite office newspaper has now made
the site its permanent home;
Community- a fully interactive area of forums, shoutbox discussion
boards and photos;
The Office Directory- listing key suppliers from corporate hospitality
to vending;
Lunchhour- including rolling news, entertainment, weather and travel
feeds, on-line dictionary and thesaurus plus competitions, treats galore
and wellbeing tips;
The Stationery Cupboard - offering information and advice on the latest
stationery products, complete with WISH LISTS and ideal for office
managers whose job it is to ensure their department or their company
runs at the optimum level of efficiency for the best possible price.
The site will contain a fully rounded experience for users – from the
light-hearted ‘pokey view’ competition to find the UK's worst office
view (which will be made gorgeous) to a heavy-weight campaign to stop
Britain putting the clock back every Autumn which aims to take a 100,000
signature petition to Downing Street.
Users to the site will be able to collect points for everything from
registering to filling out surveys and entering competitions. Points
will be redeemable against a host of sponsors office products, or can be
donated to a charity of choice.
Debi Arnold, Campaign Director of National Office Week says: 'We have
never had Office Life so good, compared with the 1850s and the 1950s –
our country has come a long way! It’s time to celebrate that fact, and
for those that still don’t think it is, we hope to inspire and convert
them thoughout the year!. National Office Week will provide us with the
catalyst to connect with office workers throughout the UK and the site
will continue to provide them with a forum thereafter. A site dedicated
to office workers – that talks to them as humans and not job titles,
identifying common issues and helping businesses and their staff to
enjoy a better work environment – is long overdue. Office life for many
in the UK, is gorgeous, however we are fully aware that working life is
far from ideal for many people across the world, and we look forward to
working with agencies who campaign to make change”.
Finally, NOW Live enables users to register for The Times Crème Show at
Londons Olympia May 13 – 15, register for their free GOODY BAG, or take
